Annual Pediatric Halloween Parade

It’s hard being in the hospital when you’re a child. Especially on Halloween, when many of your friends are out trick or treating. Our employees made sure to share plenty of treats during the Annual Pediatric Halloween Parade, where patients filled up their buckets and bags with stickers, coloring books, glow wands and more.

The Pediatric team invited the Loving Paws to take part in the parade, adding another element of Halloween surprise!
