One of the annual events that the Hill Country REACT Team does each year, is the Halloween Trick-or-Treat in Sattler, Texas, just east of Canyon Lake on FM2673.\u00a0 The entire town turns out for this event, with businesses and various groups setting up tables or booths and passing out candy or other snacks to the kids (and adults) who walk by in their costumes.<\/p>\n
REACT has been doing this for many years, and the Canyon Lake Chamber of Commerce donates around 10 huge bags of candy to the Team for distribution in REACT’s name.\u00a0 This year was no different.\u00a0 We passed out about 40-50 pounds of candy in just three hours, from 5pm-8pm tonight.<\/p>\n
Kids were everywhere. \u00a0 Comal County Sheriff deputies and Constables had their patrol cars out in the middle turn lane of FM2673 to slow down traffic and provide safe crossing points since there was free candy activity on both sides of the road. \u00a0 This was about 2 miles of free candy, and some kids were carrying very large bags, some had reinforced bags, and others didn’t plan very wall ahead.\u00a0 One kid’s paper sack split under the weight of his candy, and spilled all over the parking lot in front of REACT’s table, but other kids helped pick it up quickly (and even gave it back to the original kid, amazing!)<\/p>\n
