The Lions Club of Easton, founded on April 19, 1967, will host its 55th Halloween Bonfire & Costume Contest on Monday, October 31 at 6:30 pm at Samuel Staples Elementary School. The bonfire will be located by the soccer fields just south of the school on Morehouse Road, same as in year’s past.
The event is open to all ages and admission is free. There will be music, doughnuts, cider, and apples, all available at no charge. The bonfire usually towers up to 30 feet!
Many in the community have generously helped to supply items for this event:
Keith Lobdell of Just a Song Entertainment will provide music; Todd Bires will provide lighting; Silverman’s Farm will bring apples and cider; Tony Spinelli will supply doughnuts; and Irv Silverman will supply the wood and build the bonfire with supervision from the Easton Fire Department, Easton Police, and the Easton EMS.
Prize ribbons will be awarded in three costume categories: Funniest, Prettiest, and Most Original for five different age groups from ages two to adult.
