Even the early rain could not dampen the spirits of “Trick-or-Treaters” for the Riga Recreation/Churchville Lions Club annual Halloween Parade on Monday, October 31. The large and enthusiastic crowd of “Tricksters” were led through the streets of Churchville by the Churchville Fire Truck and “Fairy Godmother” (Lion Verna) to the nicely decorated Village Gazebo, where they were greeted by the Churchville Lions Club and Union Congregational Church members to receive goodie bags and apples. Local business gift certificates were also given to uniquely costumed boys and girls.
Many thanks go out to the following individuals and organizations that make this event possible year in and year out: the Riga Town Board, Village of Churchville, Churchville Lions and LEO clubs, Union Congregational Church, Churchville Fire Department and Fire Police, the parents, their trick-or-treaters, and Fairy Godmother Verna for leading the way!
