A group of students from Salina South High School are planning to get an early jump on Halloween. Students, friends, and family from the school’s drama department are planning to go out in costume this Thursday, going door-to-door volunteering to gather food donations

Salina High School South’s Thespian Troupe #1476 is planning to participate in the International Thespian Society’s Trick or Treat so Kids Can Eat program. Members of South’s Drama Club will be knocking on doors Thursday, October 27th, from 5:00pm until 6:30pm asking for canned and dry goods that will be donated to the Salina Emergency Aid Food Bank.

Thousands of pounds of food will be collected in one night across the state, giving organizations the ability to help thousands of local people.
