This is our first year in our house in the Castle Rock area and I overbought Halloween candy big time. Any ideas out there for who might enjoy it, besides my kids? Is there an organization to send candy to the troops? Or, does anyone know of a kids organization that could use it?

Call a dentist's office. Here in COS they give the kids a $1.00/pound and send goody bags to troops overseas. It's a great idea. RP

Or, you can donate it to the troops overseas directly (I think)

Why the troops? Even unopened, it's bound to be a little stale by the time it gets there. I'd suggest a local food bank, and do something else for the troops.
