Riverview to hold
An Ottawa County Halloween tradition will continue, thanks to support of the Riverview Nursing Home Auxiliary. Sunday October 25 from 6pm to 7:30pm, Ottawa County Riverview Healthcare Campus (Nursing Home), will open it doors to the public for Riverview's annual Trick or Treat Night.
Little ghost and ghouls are invited to Trick or Treat throughout the facility, collecting candy at each resident's room. "This is a win a win for both Riverview and the Community. It gives families a safe, well-lit, warm place to Trick or Treat, and our residents have a ball getting to see all the different costumes.
It something that they may have enjoyed in their own home and we are happy our Auxiliary has given us the opportunity to provide the experience right here in our building," states Ottawa County Riverview Healthcare Campus Administrator, Kendra German.
At 7:15 families can gather in Riverview's spacious Multipurpose Room where guest are invited to enjoy cookies and cider, donated by an anonymous community member and Heritage Healthcare.
Trick or Treaters can participate in the Costume Contest sponsored by Heartland Hospice and Home Health. First, Second, and Third place prizes will be given out to for the "Prettiest Costume", the "Funniest Costume", the "Scariest Costume" and forour littlest goblins (ages 0-2 years) a "Best Baby Costume"!
The Ottawa County Sheriff's Department will also be at the event to finger print children.
The Auxiliary is donating $1,000 worth of Candy, but there is always need for more.
