Hi everyone,
I echo Rachel's sentiments. I really enjoyed last year's COVNA Halloween
stroll, getting to meet all of our neighbors and enjoying everyone's creative
costumes in the light of day. I would love to keep this annual tradition on
a Saturday since most years, Halloween is on a weekday anyway. I think it
would be too difficult for working parents (myself included) to rush home
during the Halloween years that are on weekdays to participate in a daytime
Halloween stroll if we decide to always line our stroll up with the 31st. As
everyone who lives here is well aware, our hood isn't known for being well
lit at night and from past experience, that has really hampered our Halloween
tunrout because families don't feel comfortable letting their kiddos traverse
our streets at night with our extremely poorly lit streets. In years past,
our family as well as others in the neighborhood end up sending our kids over
to Marsh because the houses are closer together and it's frankly safer, as
its more well lit. And since we don't get many kids knocking on our door
anyway (because of the aforementioned reasons), I just leave a bucket of
candy on my front landing for the few kids that come by. I can't tell you how
many years we were left with bags of leftover candy because of the poor
turnout.
If we keep the COVNA stroll on a Saturday, I intend to send my kids over to
Marsh on Sunday as well and let them go wild over there. Feel free to join us!

We will go with whatever, but the decision to make it on a Saturday was a
huge selling point for our friends and family to join us from further in
north Austin as it gave our little kiddos a Sunday to recuperate before
school on Monday. We’ll do whatever the consensus is but I hear concerns of
families with older kiddos and younger kiddos concerns.
But wait, can we have the fun table with shots again this year ;-)

We are good for Saturday or Sunday for our event with tables and bags of
candy. Anything left from our event will probably be used for Sunday night.

I agree with Sarah, Allison, and Taya. If I could have voted for 10/31, I
would have, but from what I remember from the survey, it was a yes/no vote
for trick or treating on Saturday so I voted no because I would rather go
all out on Sunday night. Hoping maybe we can change the date to Sunday and
start early for littles.

I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest we do early Sunday
tables/candy for little kiddos and socialization and then let Halloween
run it’s course as normal with others who plan to visit the

I tend to agree with Sarah. I'm not down for two nights of Halloween. I
wish the board would have gauged the neighborhood interest in setting
tables up, as we did last year, on Halloween night. If we do a "COVNA"
event the day before Halloween, we're all stuck with handing out candy
two nights in a row, or being one of those houses that turns their
lights off on Halloween night. That's no fun.

My understanding is the littles are heading out on Saturday-earlier
like we did last year and people can set out tables for them to grab
candy. Sunday is the evening bigger kids and whomever else. 💀🕷🤡👻😈🎃👽☠️

Hi Sean,
I was just thinking things over about Halloween…..so we’re doing a
neighborhood Halloween trick or treat event the night before
Halloween, and then again doing Halloween the night after? Im not
sure I’m down for 2 nights of Halloween and I know my kid isn’t going
to want to miss the real Halloween night. Are we substituting
Saturday for Sunday? Sorry, but upon further thought, I’m now
confused. Lol
Thanks for any clarity you can provide.

Hi Neighbors,
On behalf of the board, I'd like to sincerely thank everyone who
made it out to National Night Out and especially thank Xan, Matt
and Vivian for hosting and opening up their home. The Austin Code
Enforcement officers were awesome and the fire truck at the end of
the night made for a really great evening. Both told me that we had
one of the evening's best turnouts. The residents of COVNA are
truly the reason why this is such a great neighborhood.
So on to the future. Halloween. The kids (and some adults) I spoke
to on Tuesday sounded pretty excited. REMINDER: We are going to
have our COVNA event on Saturday (time TBA) 10/30. What we did last
year was neighbors set up tables or tailgates at their driveways to
give treats away. Laying treats out on a table minimizes touching
and keeps things moving along. I encourage you to get creative with
your decorations and set ups. If you are participating, please let
me know your name and address and we'll include you on a map that
we'll send out.
Have you paid your COVNA dues? I want to continue having great
events in the future and we can really use your support. Please
consider donating and/or volunteering. Click HERE to learn how.
<thank you Neighbors!.jpg>
Thank you again and please let me know if there is anything I can
help you out with.
Sean
