Participants simply need to bring the bagged costume at the Cinco Ranch Branch Information Desk - 1st floor, where they will receive one Swap Ticket per costume to use at the swap on Saturday, October 12, 2024 from 11am - 3pm in the Meeting Room.

Donate a costume and receive a Swap Ticket to be redeemed on October 12, 2024. At the Swap - those with tickets will have entry at 11am and those without a ticket at 1pm.

At the swap event, attendees can pick out a costume with their ticket from available costumes in a variety of sizes and styles.

***RESPOOK, REWEAR, RESCARE! Participate in the swap and help keep costumes out of landfills!  Because most costumes are made from polyester and plastics and are not recyclable, each year roughly 2,000 tons of costumes end up in the trash.***
