Fall weather is on its way, which means some of us are preparing for Halloween. If you have a costume that’s gathering dust, you can give it a new life by donating it to a Salem costume swap planned for October.
Salem Cloth Project is organizing the second annual Halloween Costume Swap on Oct. 14 at Englewood Elementary School. From 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., anyone can browse donated costumes and take home a fresh spooky look.
Want to help? Your gently-used costumes to supply the swap can be dropped off during business hours at the Salem Public Library, either the main or West Salem branch, as well as the Keizer Civic Center. Find more information on Facebook here.
You can always find our latest reports anytime of day or night on our website.
