Capital idea Frank! I will create a flyer and ask the newsletter distributors
and/or any volunteer to spread the word to the entire neighborhood. This is
going to be great!🎃

Neighbors,
I have made the decision to have our COVNA Halloween Stroll for Saturday
October 30, 2021 starting at 4:00pm like we did last year. I did not come to
this decision lightly. We have lived in this neighborhood for over a decade and
Halloween is typically a light participation night because of these issues:
Not a lot of streetlights/ No sidewalks/ Houses are too far apart for quick
trick or treating.
- Houses too far apart: Children and parents alike know that the houses in
Castlewood Forest are too far apart so trick or treaters typically head to
Tanglewood (the neighborhood next to ours) because three houses can be visited
versus one house in COVNA.
- Not a lot of streetlights: There are zero streetlights on my block and not
a lot in the neighborhood. This makes for an unsafe evening.
- No sidewalks: Without the use of sidewalks, kids will be in the street.
Wearing masks. Without a lot of streetlights. Unsafe. Unsafe. Unsafe.
- Halloween falls on a school night. That means either earlier bed times
(missing out on the full experience) or overly-stimulated/sugared up children
out too late and too excited to fall asleep (I'm sure all their teachers REALLY
appreciate that the next day).
Here is why I want to create an annual neighborhood event the Saturday before
Halloween:
- All the reasons listed above.
- There is no rush to get home or to get the kids from after-school programs
to get into costumes.
- Starting at 4:00p gives the whole neighborhood the opportunity to
congregate and to see each other's costumes because it is NOT too dark and
we're NOT in a rush.
To Wrap It Up:This is a separate COVNA neighborhood event from Halloween.
You're free to participate in this event, traditional Halloween, either or
neither.
How this event started: My street (with no streetlights) never got more than
one or two trick or treaters outside of the kids who lived on our street so it
always devolved into the neighbors and I eating lots of our own candy and
drinking way too much Irish whiskey. Then when Covid hit, I thought to create
something the whole neighborhood could enjoy. Hence the COVNA Halloween Stroll
last year that WAS on a Saturday and WAS an extraordinary success. Why not make
this an annual neighborhood event? Halloween can be Halloween on the 31st but
we are a social bunch. I repeat: we. are. a. social. bunch. Am I truly the only
one who actually likes seeing my neighbors in fully costumed getups?
Also, I intend to print up flyers next week advertising our COVNA Halloween
Stroll to let all of our neighbors, who are not on the COVNA email list or
social media, aware that this event is taking place on Saturday, October 30. I
need volunteers from our neighborhood to help identify these neighbors and
distribute these flyers to them.
As you know the volunteer COVNA Board has many vacancies right now and we are
very short-staffed. I love love love the enthusiasm in the emails. Please
consider joining the COVNA Board! We need enthusiastic folks like you to step
up and volunteer for a Board position. My tenure as President (also volunteer)
ends in December.
