”It’s a great way for us to just see the smiles on their faces and for kids to be something they dream up like a fireman or a zombie whatever they dream they want to be that day so it’s always exciting for us to be involved in something that makes kids happy,” Esser said.
For many downtown businesses, the trick-or-treating event serves as a fun community event while also helping bring in new customers.
”As a non-profit, we really want to talk about the work that we do and want to expose people to the programs that we have so it’s really twofold we can give away books and give away candy at the same time that’s a huge win for us all the way around,” Carda said.
