🎃 HALLOWEEN IS HERE! 👻

Don’t forget to add 135 King St. to tonight’s trick-or-treat route! We should be ready to go about 530pm or so.

We’ll have a few Volunteers at the firehall handing out candy, checking out costumes and telling some spooky tales. 🍬👻

And for those closer to Thornton, our second favourite firefighters at Station 1 will be handing out candy too. 😂🚒

Come say hi, grab some treats and show us those costumes!

See everyone tonight! Stay spooky Angus! 🎃👻
