The Halloween Conundrum
Brett inc., for those who don't know, is located in Greenville, S.C., which is the so-called buckle of the old-time Bible Belt. However, Greenville has been very progressive when it comes to changing with the times and promoting news ideas.
Halloween now falls into that category. Sort of. It used to be that if October 31 fell on a Sunday that everyone in Greenville knew to celebrate Halloween the night before. No questions asked. No one thought any differently of it. About a decade ago as people from places that celebrated Halloween no matter when it fell on the calender moved here, they began to question when to celebrate. So local governments and law enforcement laid down the rules. Halloween would be celebrated on Saturday even if it fell on a Sunday.
Well, Halloween falls on a Sunday this year, and confusion reigns here and in the rest of the Upstate. Those doctrines appear to be out the window. Greenwood, for example, is celebrating it on a Sunday, but the mall there is having an event on Saturday. Most other places are leaving it up to the will of the people. So neighborhood by neighborhood will be celebrating on Saturday or Sunday or both.
Two questions? When are you celebrating Halloween? And is it needed? My little girl already has a treat bag full of candy from church and school. I don't think she needs any more.
It's the Halloween Conundrum.
