Small town Iowa moves to make Halloween safer in 1985

Small town Iowa moves to make Halloween safer in 1985
And sometimes keeping out of trouble on Halloween is as challenging as finding *** needle in *** haystack. Actually, these kids are looking for money. The search for hay in the hay is just part of *** Halloween party for the kids of Underwood Iowa. Around 150 jewels and goblins turned out for the event and that pleases organizers. We wanted to come up with *** party where kids can have *** good time and parents can watch what goes on *** lot of the kids, you know, the houses are spread out and we want to do where they could all get together and be with their friends on Halloween. Is it *** move to make Halloween *** little more safe? That too, you don't think about problems in *** small town, but they're always, they're always there. Even though this party is supposed to keep trick or treaters off the streets and safe inside. It seems most of the kids here have the best of both worlds. This Halloween, you miss trick or treating door to door, trick or treat though. So you got to do both things tonight. Did you get to *** trick or treating earlier. No, I'm gonna go later on tonight. Another highlight of the party, *** pinata, the goal to break the pumpkin open and get the treats inside Underwood. Parents hope they can break tradition and keep kids entertained with *** party like this every year on Halloween. But only time will tell often the best laid plans of parrots go awry. Underwood, Iowa for news watch 7 to 10. I'm Vaughan Jones.
