The following was submitted by Derby Town Clerk Marc Garofalo Nov. 13.The Derby Town/City Clerk’s Office will be collecting slightly used Halloween costumes for use next year by City children.
Every year parents spend a lot of money on costumes that are worn only once.
Unfortunately, there are a number of families that can’t afford a new costume.
This project will help those in need for next year.
Costumes can be brought to the Town/City Clerk’s Office during business hours – Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, Thursday from 8:30 am to 6:00 pm, Friday from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm.
Please spread the word to friends and family to promote recycling and helping our neighbors.
Thanks to a Derby teacher for the great suggestion!
