Thousands of Trick or Treaters Expected

Imagine buying enough candy to handout to thousands of mini ghosts, goblins, pirates and princesses. That's the feat facing the merchants in Dahlonega, Ga., when the city hosts its annual Trick or Treat on the Square event, on Halloween from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

In 2010, according to reports, approximately 4,000 children (and parents) filled the town's square, lining up to go store-to-store, block-by-block for lollipops, chocolate bars, candy corn and other sugary sweets. This year should be no different.

Along with merchants, other Dahlonega civic organizations will be on the Square to dispense candy too. In fact, D&B is scheduled to be one of the hander-outers with the Business Leads Group for the Dahlonega-Lumpkin County Chamber of Commerce. Can't wait to see all the costumes!
P.S. Roads through the square will be closed and traffic re-routed for the event.
