Good Things Happen in Our Community

Editor,

With all that is going on, it needs to be said that good things do happen in our community.

On October 30th, April Chan (Fairview MAC member) organized a “Trunk or Treat” event at Don Castro Park in Fairview.  Rotary of Castro Valley was the host and Frito Lay was a sponsor, East Bay Regional Parks made the space available (Thanks Dennis Waespi), Alameda County Sheriff, Ora Loma Sanitary and many other public agencies participated.  There were scores of cars and trucks - well Halloween decorated - 600 kids and their parents came out to join the fun.  There was such an amazing sense of community - it was heartwarming to see.  Look at the Rotary Facebook site for pictures.

Thanks to April Chan for organizing the event and to all who supported the fun community event.
