Enter to Win a Halloween Boo Bag and Share One With Your Neighbors!

October 7, 2022

👻 We’re spreading some Halloween cheer and giving away 200 Macaroni KID Boo Bags to the community! 👻

What is a Boo Bag?

Local families will get “boo'd” with a Boo Bag full of Halloween goodies on their doorstep the week of October 17th. Our volunteers will deliver one boo bag for your family, but also provide a second Boo Bag so your family can “boo” another family in your area. Then those families who’ve been “boo'd” will create a small Boo Bag of their own and “boo” their neighbors and friends in the area! (Phew, that was a lot of boos!👻) It will create some Halloween fun all over our community!

🎃 Want to win a Boo Bag? 

We will choose 80 entries at random to receive TWO Boo Bags - one to keep and enjoy with your family, and one to pass along to another family! The first Boo Bags will be delivered starting on October 17th. (By entering, you agree to keep the movement going by secretly surprising one other family with the extra bag if your family is chosen to receive them. You also must live in Thornton, Northglenn, or East Westminster.)

❤️ Want to help us spread the joy?

We need about 10 volunteers to help deliver the Boo Bags! Last year's volunteers had so much fun canvassing our community with so much joy, I loved seeing their pictures of sneaky deliveries. 

What will our volunteers do? Stuff 6-10 bags and then deliver them in the area at predetermined stops. We’ll make a route for you where bags are close together and you’ll only have 3-5 stops. Bags will be stuffed on October 17th - 19th with deliveries happening that week.

If you'd like to participate in deliveries, please just check the box when you enter to win a Boo Bag!
