As last Saturday was Halloween, the 5- and 6-year-olds were encouraged to wear their costumes. This was an innovative solution to trick-or-treating being discouraged this year for fears of the virus spreading. The SIYSL also gave each player water bottles stuffed with pre-packaged candies.

“This event needed to be created to try and get back to some kind of normal life. It was cold but the kids didn’t mind, they had fun and received candy. What else would they have wanted?” commented SIYSL President Bill Smith. “The executive board and clinic staff did a great job making this happen for the children. And I can tell you from personal experience, it wasn’t easy putting candy in water bottles.”
