Halloween Candy Buy-Back

Dear Moms and Dads,

Halloween is coming and it's usually hard for your dentist to get excited about that day because of all the candy your kids eat.  This year, however, can be different!  Don't you wish that the day after Halloween the candy would all disappear??  Well, we can help!  We are excited to announce our 1st annual Halloween Candy Buy-Back!

This year we'll buy the candy back from your kids!

We're not kidding!  We will pay your kids $1.00 per pound for donated candy up to a maximum of five pounds per child.  The candy will then be shipped overseas to our courageous troops!  The kids will also receive a goody bag to thank them for supporting our troops!

We believe that kids should still dress up, go trick-or-treating, have fun, and even enjoy some candy.  But after picking out their favorites, they will probably have several pounds left and nobody needs that much candy!  Bring your kids and their candy in on Friday November 4th from 3:30-6:00 pm.  At this time, they will also be able to send their own personal message to the troops thanking them for their service!  Mark your calendar and hope to see you there!!
