We are bringing in BOO Baskets for 2021!
Let's Get BOO'd in the Corridor!
Last year our friends in the Cedar Valley drove around Waterloo, Cedar Falls, Independence, and Jesup to deliver 100 BOO Baskets to local families. Each basket had an array of treats and trinkets for kids to enjoy especially since Halloween was taking on a new look for 2020. We received such a positive response to our BOO Baskets in that area, we just couldn't hold out and not do it for our friends in the Corridor as well! This article will serve as an information center to find out what the BOO Baskets are, how to sign up to receive one, and how to help sponsor this awesomely, fun Halloween community give-back opportunity.
A BOO Baskets is a basket filled with Halloween treats, toys and goodies that we will deliver to 100 random families in the Cedar Rapids - Iowa City areas. The baskets will be 100% FREE. That's right, we will be delivering the Baskets to your house and you won't pay for anything. How is this possible? This is possible because of the amazing local Business Sponsors who help fund this project.
After you receive your BOO Basket, you will be responsible to BOO two (2) more families of your choosing (friends, family, neighbors, etc.) with a basket filled with Halloween goodies and treats. Make sure when you are BOO-ing you are quiet! It's supposed to be a mystery who is BOOing you! Then make sure to share the fun on social media and tag our Facebook page.
