What an amazing night in Big Stone Gap!
We hit a new record at Mead Manor handing out 183 gallons of candy and 600 Bags of chips!
The town was LOADED with most of the restaurants lucky enough to be open reported record sales!
Most do not realize there are literally THOUSANDS of people in town on Halloween.
We had a line starting at 4:45pm and the lines did not stop until almost 9pm! At one point they were lined up all the way to Curklin's trying to get into the Trunk or Treat and down to Meade Manor. It is hard to fathom the sheer number of kids we have visiting but to give you an idea, we handed out 600 bags of chips in 30 minutes.
The Carnival was also covered up till the last minute!
We could not have done it without the support of our community and our businesses contributing time and candy into this amazing day.
We had started a list of people who had given dominations but there was so many, especially on Halloween day, we could not possibly remember them all. So to avoid missing somebody I just want to give a very heartfelt thanks to EVERYBODY that contributed! Thank you all so much! This is the growing community we started 3 years ago and it goes to show you we are capable of amazing things if we work together.
We could not have done it without you all and every single piece of candy went to making a child's night.
Happy Halloween and we look forward to next year!
