Get a head start on Halloween this year and clear away some outgrown items from your kid’s closets.
Two local libraries are giving parents a way to minimize costs, re-use, and help another family out!
White Tank Library Halloween Costume Swap

Storybook Costume Closet Donation Drive
At Peoria’s Main Library, you can donate clean, gently used Halloween costumes, costume accessories, wigs, hats, capes, and other dress-up items for children, teens, and adults. Donations will help stock the free Storybook Costume Closet this October. A box is available for donations in the lobby of the Peoria Main Library now through Sept.
