Halloween Information

Don't forget! LaVergne's Trail of Treats is coming up this Saturday, October 28, 2006 from 2:00 -4:00 pm at Veterans Memorial Park. It is hosted by the city's Parks and Recreation Department. Children should come dressed in costume and will enjoy treats all along the walking trail as they go through the park. Events for the day also include a hay ride, spider web obstacle course, jumping through the pumpkin patch, and digging for bones in the graveyard. All activities are free of charge.

Also, Mayor Ronnie Erwin announced that trick-or-treating will be on Halloween next Tuesday, October 31st. Since we are not a "sidewalk community" we ask that everyone be extra careful that night when driving. Look out for our little ghouls, goblins, princesses, spidermen, light-saber-wielding Jedi, ballerinas, and hobos.


REMINDER: Don't forget Skate-for-the-Children on Thursday, October 26th from 6:30 - 9:00 p.m. at Smyrna Skate Center. Proceeds will be used for "Christmas for the Children," a fundraiser that benefits the less fortunate kids in our community during the holidays. If you'd like to make a donation, contact Kathy Tyson at 491-2161 or Bob Parks Realty at 459-4040. This is the same night as Roy Waldron's Skate Night... families who are there for Waldron School will are invited to participate in the silent auction set up in one of the party rooms!
