This year's Halloween was no trick and all treat thanks to our local communities. Students from Towanda Area School District made sure our new Towanda Laurel Health Center at 410 Main St. was suitably spooky with colorful window art that showcased their creativity and talent.

If you haven't had a chance to check out the festive Towanda LHC decor in person, check out this collage:

A big thanks to everyone who stopped by Laurel Health's superhero stations at the Mansfield, Towanda, and Wellsboro trunk-or-treat events this year. Our team handed out more than 1,200 goodies and toothbrushes to help keep kids' teeth healthy after enjoying their sweet treats. We had a ghoulishly good time seeing your creative costumes and celebrating with local families throughout Tioga and Bradford Counties. 

Our Wellsboro Laurel Health Center kept things festive with a creative pumpkin decoration contest. The Wellsboro team entered the 5th annual Comfort Keepers pumpkin contest with their "patients first" pumpkin, inviting the community to vote for their favorite pumpkin designs. 

Featured bottom center are our pumpkin decorator extraordinaires Melinda, Darlene, Karen, Jeannette, and Kristen from the Wellsboro Laurel Health Center.
