The Halloween neighborhood bonfires are one of the best things YS does. I’m grateful this tradition continues. I have great memories of the ones on the corner of Glen View and Birch where Deacon Richardson and the other neighborhood dads would feed us hot dogs, marshmallows, and apple cider until our bellies were about to burst.
