this year’s event. Pictured are Julie Kessen, Granny’s Corner, Amber Schmerge,

Kids will be begging for fun this Halloween! On Thursday, October 28, immediately following the annual Lion’s Club Parade, downtown Greenville will be transformed into a Halloween fun night for elementary school aged children. Activity stations and treat stops are being planned all along S. Broadway.

In conjunction with the annual Lion’s Club Parade, the Beggars’ Night committee is assisting with a service project of the Lion’s Club collecting unused eye glasses and hearing aids. Donations of these items will be accepted now through Oct. 28 at the following downtown businesses: Studio One, Sweet One O One, KitchenAid Experience, Beltone Hearing and Advanced Eye Care. Just look for the drop box.

“The Lion’s Club mission is wanting everyone to see a better tomorrow. That's why we support sight programs and services including vision screenings, eye banks and eyeglass recycling. We provide eye care services to those at risk of losing their sight and raise donations through campaigns like SightFirst and Campaign SightFirst II,” commented Lion’s Club president Nancy McClurg.

Please join the Beggars’ Night committee and the Lion’s Club in supporting a great cause. The Lion’s Club and Main Street Greenville are pleased to bring this safe Halloween event to the community.
