Halloween night, crews with Humboldt General Hospital's Emergency Medical
Services Rescue will hand out free goodies to remind area children to
have a safe Halloween.
From 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, October 31, area youngsters are invited
to drop by the ambulance station located adjacent to the hospital to pick
up a Halloween goodie bag.
The facility is located at 118 E. Haskell Street.
Additionally, the HGH EMS Rescue ATV will be cruising area neighborhoods,
handing out glow sticks.
Crew members also will be on patrol throughout the evening in high traffic
trick or treating areas, along with area law enforcement, to make sure
that children and parents stay safe.
HGH Administrative Director Pat Songer said it's the least the hospital
can do during a time when parents worry about the safety of their children.
He said, "HGH EMS is happy to help make Halloween a safe holiday for
area kids."
