            [October 28, 2013]      Send a link to a friend This year several businesses 
			and organizations came out to be a part of the afternoon. In 
			addition, all that trick-or-treating can work up a powerful thirst 
			and hunger. Joe Ryan of Country Financial, members of the 
			Young Professionals Network, Marla Blair of United Way, and the city 
			of Lincoln provided soda and hot dogs to everyone. Blair was on hand giving 
			everyone a hand, literally. Her clever idea this year was to 
			fill latex gloves with candy and treats. As folks passed 
			through the food line, she would say, "Here, let me give you a 
			hand."  The Lincoln Park District's own Roy 
			Logan was also on hand, keeping an eye on everything and helping 
			where needed. In addition to food and candy, 
			there were also games set up for youngsters who needed to get 
			started early working off their sugar-buzz from all the sweet 
			treats, and there was some great music for those who might want to work it off 
			with a little dancing..
