(FRI) Halloween Costume Exchange
Do you have Halloween costumes from years past hanging in a closet somewhere? Bring them to the Redmond Library this Friday, October 8, from 4pm to 6pm in Meeeting Room 1 and exchange them for something different! The Redmond Girl Scouts are helping others "green" their Halloween by hosting a Halloween costume exchange. It's simple: Bring any gently used costume, dress-up clothes, or theater costumes for infants to kids up to 13 years-old and you can exchange it for another donated costume. This is a great way to clean out your closet and save some money on costumes this year! Leftover costumes will be donated to a local non-profit. The Girl Scouts will also be accepting non-perishable food donations for Hopelink.
