Costumes, decorations, K-9 units — and about 70,000 pieces of candy to give away — to be part of festivities
On Saturday, Oct. 24, from 6 to 8 p.m., the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office will host its seventh annual Halloween Drive-Thru event at the agency’s headquarters, which stands at 6010 Cattleridge Blvd. in Sarasota, the Sheriff’s Office announced this week.
“It’s an easy, safe, quick, and fun experience for families that allows our agency members and specialty units to interact with our community,” said Sheriff Kurt A. Hoffman in a news release. “The attendees always give us positive feedback, which is why we keep doing it year after year!”
“Attendees should enter Cattleridge Boulevard between Arby’s restaurant and the BP convenience store, then proceed north to the event,” the release explains. As this is a drive-through event, the release points out, “on-site parking will not be available, and all attendees are asked to remain in their vehicles.”
The event will feature decorations, costumes, K-9 units, members of the Mounted Patrol, and more, the release says. Additionally, it notes, “there will be nearly 70,000 pieces of candy for attendees to enjoy.”
