    Halloween is almost here and if you don't have a costume yet, now is the time to get one! Stop by a Halloween Adventure Superstore where you can shop for Halloween and donate to T1D research through Halloween Adventure's JDRF paper sneaker sales campaign. The campaign runs through October 31st and is also being held at Halloween Adventure's sister company, Smart Toys. Halloween Adventure and Smart Toys have been "scaring up support" for T1D research since 2003 and have raised nearly $1 million in support of JDRF. JDRF is thrilled to have this "spook-tacular" partnership – and we wish you a happy and safe Halloween!
