Costume giveaway saves money, time
After searching the costume racks for almost a half hour, 10-year-old Kimberlynn Olinger found a hockey mask and scrubs stained with something that looks like blood, which made for the perfect “evil doctor” Halloween costume for her.
While this costume and the other three Tammy Davis needed for her four kids this season could cost more than a few tricks or treats at the store, they all found their fits at the Ghouls for Good giveaway Monday, Oct. 17, hosted annually by the Butler County Young Professionals.
The giveaway could not have come at a more apt time for Davis.
“Getting up on my feet, this is a big help for me,” said Davis, of Butler.
Ghouls for Good took place at the Butler Cubs Hall on McKean Street, where hundreds of costumes were ready for free checkout from local residents. The giveaway was scheduled to begin at 4 p.m., but there was already a line waiting by 3:30 p.m.
