Halloween Candy
Village Neighbors can request Halloween candy through this link CLICK HERE
October 19, 2022
Greetings to our Village neighbors,
Are you interested in receiving candy this year from LYSB’s Candy Drive for Trick or Treating? After hearing feedback from Village neighbors, we are changing the process for receiving candy this year.
For the past 8 years LYSB youth volunteers have delivered candy to nearly every house in the Village. We don’t know which houses plan to participate in Halloween, so we deliver to every house. Many homeowners contact us because they don’t want or need the candy, and therefore there was much waste. Some homeowners were also uncomfortable with our youth volunteers making the deliveries.
New this year, we are asking in advance if you would like to receive candy so we can be efficient. Please contact us at 860-434-7208 x0, or email: mgarvin@lysb.org, or click the link on our website (www.lysb.org/halloween) and let us know your name, your address, and if you would like us to deliver candy, or if you prefer to pick it up at LYSB. We plan to make deliveries on October 26/27 so we hope to hear from you by then.
LYSB and the children of Lyme-Old Lyme are so grateful to our Village neighbors for their generosity every year on October 31st and we hope the candy drive can help to defray some of the cost for you.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Missy Garvin
Youth Programs Coordinator
