New Castle’s entire Committee on Race, Equity and Inclusion (CREI) resigned early last week after sharp disagreements arose over its failure to publicly denounce anti-Semitism in the wake of the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel.

In a social media message to the community seen by The Examiner last Tuesday, Supervisor Lisa Katz informed the community of the en masse resignations, stating that the committee’s departure stemmed from their “stance that contradicts the very principles of tolerance and understanding that our town upholds.”New Castle Looks to Regroup Committee on Race After Mass Resignations | The Examiner News

--THE HISTORY OF CANDY CORN THE NEW EVERYTHING CROTON: AND NOW FOR THE HISTORY OF CANDY CORN...

AND NOW FOR THE HISTORY OF CANDY CORN...

Love it....hate it....Just as Peeps are most traditionally associated with Easter, Candy Corn is most traditionally associated with Halloween.

It has had, however, a fascinating history; read all about it here.

On another note, residents recall their parents buying everything from Trick or Treat bags to Collegeville Costumes at Pop Berger's, the Grand Union, Woolworth's in the Beach Shopping Center, or Elliott's......

A time when Halloween wasn't so "complicated".....for some folks at least.....
