Thank you to the community for participating in the Douglas Ghost Walk<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t The Douglas Ghost Walk was started by the Douglas Lion’s Club in the 1950s. Children had a safe and warm environment to play games, wear costumes and get Halloween treats inside, out of the darkness, cold and wet weather and the Taku winds.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t This year we passed out close to 300 Halloween bags. The JDHS hockey team ran the games, set-up the games and cleaned up after the event. Douglas volunteer firefighters donated candy, Dr. Gilbert, DDS donated 300 toothbrushes and toothpaste, Office Plus donated Play-Doh to go into the Halloween bags. The Douglas 4th of July Committee has been organizing this event for years and donated time and non-candy prizes to be handed out at the game stations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
