ESTEVAN - The Estevan Mercury was among the participants of Saturday's Trick or Treat on 13th, which involved businesses and organizations on and around 13th Avenue in Estevan.
The Mercury and other businesses were decorated for Halloween and handed candy to local families. A total of 138 kids showed up at the Mercury's building.
Haley Igham from Recharge Massage Studio organized the event.
This marked the first time the businesses around 13th Avenue have hosted a Halloween event, and there is talk of making it even bigger next year.
Other participants were Pharmasave, Athlete World, Dairy Queen, Soak & Style, the Days Inn, Fired Up Grill and the Estevan Fire Rescue Service. Families had to visit every location and receive a stamp to enter the draw for the prize basket.
Also, the Mercury will be open on Halloween until about 7 p.m. to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters. In conjunction with the Mercury's colouring contest, young readers are asked to drop off their colouring pages and pick up candy or treats.
All entries will be eligible to win a prize basket.
Winners will be contacted on Nov. 1.
