Annual Trick-or-Can Post

[willow_red]

So it's that time of year again, and in my world, Halloween means it's time to dress up in a costume, and go door to door confusing people collecting canned food for the needy (typically the Denver Rescue Mission).

In its infinite wisdom, CU is playing the homecoming game on Halloween. The game starts at 11:30am. For whatever reason, the students have decided they want to go Trick-or-Canning at noon. Personally, I think that's a bit ridiculous, as people will not be expecting trick-or-treaters that early, and it's much more fun to go when it's dark. But it's their event, so they can go when they like.

Therefore, I propose the following: a renegade Trick-or-Can for us non-students. I'll work it out with the students to make sure we don't hit any of the same areas they did. Also, traffic is going to suck royally anywhere near campus. Let's meet at 5pm (maybe at my house?), and I'll work out the logistics for assigning neighborhoods and where to drop off food.

If you are interested in participating in my Renegade Trick-or-Can, please comment below so I can get a count of how many people we're talking about, and so I can reserve a large enough area for us.

If you have any questions about this event, feel free to ask!

Huh, so it's indeed an early game? I heard about the possibility from my little sis -- but, now that it's confirmed, I guess that kinda changes the day's plans a bit for me.

You already know I'm up for trick-or-canning, though! I'm just wondering if the food will still be dropped off with TBP (maybe after the weekend, as I imagine no one'll be at the office late that night), or if we'll be on our own to drop off the donations.

I need to talk to the student who's putting this together. There's a bit of a conflict with another group doing a similar event, and she was going to ensure that we don't overlap, but depending on what she worked out, that might change where the food goes. Either way, we shouldn't be on our own for dropping it off. (Also, TBP moved offices recently and now shares with not just one, but three other societies, so keeping that much food in the office really isn't an option.)

The info on the game comes from cubuffs.com. Apparently, the homecoming game is being shown on Fox Sports.

Me! And Chris! I don't know if I'll be able to see you before that but be certain that I am DEFINITELY doing this. Let me know where and when once you're sure. =) Also I'll be free that day after taking Chris' parents to the airport (not sure when that's happening atm), do you want to try and do dinner as well?
