Trick or Treating: Covid Style

Lizzy Landreth, Reporter

This year has had many trials and tribulations. Events had to be cancelled, people couldn’t go out to eat with family or friends; but this year even holidays are getting cancelled. A lot of families didn’t want to get together on holidays such as Easter, and some were even quarantined on their birthdays. This year even big holidays such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas could be getting cancelled. Halloween is always a good time to dress up in favorite costumes and get with friends to walk the town and get candy; or have get-together’s with family and friends to celebrate the fun, and spooky holiday. This year seems a bit different though. People are afraid of Covid so many aren’t even going out to trick-or-treat, or go to the get-together’s they were invited to. I asked, teacher, Kim Wellen, who has two little children, what she was going to do about this year’s obstacles. She stated, “ It is a very big change in what we had planned for this year, but we are going to try and make the best out of this year.” Hopefully, everybody has a safe and spooky Halloween.
