See what Patient First is doing in the community.
On Friday and Saturday, October 25th and 26th, Patient First returned to the campground at Codorus State Park in Hanover, PA to take part in the Codorus Trail of Treats. An event that has become legendary in the region, this two-night, sold-out event brings in families from all around the area, as well as campers who've set up amazing Halloween displays at their camp sites. Each night, 1,500 tickets are sold to families who travel through the campground and interact with the hundreds of camp sites.
This event has always been a particularly fun one for our staff, who can dress up in costume as they hand out our safety blinkers and hand sanitizer. We brought 3,000 blinkers to the event, and went through every single box in our inventory! What makes it even more incredible is that all that happened with the space of three hours each night!
The parents we spoke with came from all over the area-- from Hanover, from York, even from northern Baltimore County. So many people remembered us from our presence there over the past three years, and told us how much they loved the level of care they received from our centers.
This is always a very intense, but very fun pair of evenings that mark the last stretch of our event calendar. It's always a thrill to see the array of costumes and decorations by the thousands, and our staff (a few of them first-timers) say they look forward to being a part of it next year!
