Birchwood Candy Walk
This was the first year of having a candy walk in the Birchwood Neighborhood and after spending several hours passing out fliers there were three of us at a station along the candy route. We had no expectations but high hopes that people would react positively to the idea of having a safe way for kids to get the candy they so desperately wanted without the parents having the anxiety as their children went door to door. So we approached the evening just being thankful it was not raining and that there were plenty of Trick or Treaters.
Within 15 minutes of each other two different neighbors approached us with their bowls of candy, asked what we were doing, and the asked if they could join us. “Of course!” we practically shouted. So for the next 30 minutes or so we had some neighbors setup a station similar to ours about 100 feet down the route. Success!
