On Saturday, Oct. 29, Catholic Charities of Tompkins Tioga and the Nichols Fire Department teamed up, along with Clear Path for Veterans, to host a Halloween Trunk or Treat for all the children in the community to enjoy. Approximately 200 trick-or-treaters, plus their families, stopped by to show off their costumes, get a bunch of treats, and enjoy some hotdogs and snacks.

“We have this beautiful state-of-the-art station that is available for organizations to use,” added Lauri Hiller, ESS Captain, adding, “We are thrilled that we were able to be a part of this. The smiles on the children spoke volumes!”
