The La Salle Public Library will join the Hometown Halloween festivities from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28. Children can come to the library for a gift book, a glowstick and a goodie bag.

The goodie bags will be marked with either a teal pumpkin, indicating the items are not food, or an orange pumpkin, indicating the items are food items. A professional, seasonally themed photo background also will be available to capture family memories.

The library is a supporter of the Teal Pumpkin Project. The project, launched in 2014 by Food Allergy Research & Education, provides nonfood items for trick-or-treaters with allergies. For information about the project, visit www.tealpumpkinproject.org.
