Boo! time

(Oct. 27, 2010) It's time for ghosts and goblins, princesses and cowboys, and more. Sunday, Oct. 31, is Halloween when kids of all ages dress up in scary, sometimes not so scary, costumes and have fun with candy and all kinds of "trick or treat."

Years ago, they used to roam up on and down their neighborhood streets on Halloween night, ringing doorbells and shouting "trick or treat" as a petition for candy from those who answered their doors. Nowadays, at the end of the month, there are many other Halloween celebrations deemed safer, including "trick or trunk," school parties, neighborhood parades, farm fests and more. Read all about them in Recorder Community Newspapers and in many of their blogs right here online.
