The Collins Regional Historical Society will once again be hosting a FREE HALLOWEEN PARTY for ALL residents (ALL ages) from the township of Collins, including; past residents, residents of the Village of Gowanda, the Cattaraugus Reservation & both Springville & Gowanda School Districts.

There will be spooky sound effects & spooky Halloween music to enhance the FREE pumpkins for children (of all ages) to decorate with markers. There will also be FREE cookie decorating, create your own spooky cookie and other crafts for the younger crowd (or the young at heart!). We will provide bags for the children (again any age) to march around (weather permitting outside, weather not permitting, inside) trick or treating in a safe, fun environment!

Residents who enjoy the holiday are urged to participate by bringing bags of treats to hand out to the trick or treaters!

Come in costume, ready made or made from your own imagination. Check out the other costumes for ideas for next year! We will provide FREE snacks and cider throughout the event.

We urge adults who have old pictures, photographs, postcards, newspaper articles, scrapbooks, diaries or advertising memorabilia concerning the town (including all areas aforementioned) to bring them to share with us. Those who grew up in the area, or have lived in the area for many years, or those who have moved away and are stopping only for a visit, share your memories with us, write them down, or simply tell one of our members & they will transcribe your memories for you.

Those who share anything from candy for the trick or treaters to any memories, or physical property belonging to Collins’ by gone era will receive a FREE one year membership to the historical society. Those whose items or memories appear in our upcoming book; Collins’ Tales, will also receive one FREE copy of the book on publication (additional books will be available for a nominal fee).

COME ONE! COME ALL! MAKE THIS YEAR’S HALLOWEEN PARTY A HALLOWEEN BALL!
