Hallowe’en for the Little’uns – Tuesday, 31 October

Your Fire Department will again be setting up a safe and spooky

Trick-or-Treat destination for the small ghosts, cowpokes, Barbies, Super/Spider/Bat people etc. who are under ten years old on Hallowe’en night.

The Engine bay at the Fire Hall will be out of the rain and ready for parents with their little ones to come by between 6 pm to 7 pm to show off their costumes. We will go back to being just a fire hall at 7 pm.

If you don’t have children handy but want to show off your carved pumpkin artistry or have Hallowe’en treats you would like to share with our smallest residents, drop off your donations at the fire hall on Hallowe’en day, or come and help us decorate the Engine bay at 5:30 and stay to greet the children. Costumes are encouraged.

(The evening is short so the small fry and the fire fighters can get to bed early on a school night!)

Thank You

I appreciate everyone who helped make a great event for Nic’s farewell tea/coffee on Thursday!

Thanks to the great kitchen combo team, the hard working spontaneous set up/take down crew, the avid bakers of treats, the brave speakers, the people who signed their names on all those cards, and tried to eat all the food, the silent individuals that offered more, and the guest of honour who agreed to come!

Good on all of you!
