• In an effort to promote a safe and healthy Halloween for children, Molen Orthodontics bought back more than 2,000 pounds of candy donated by an estimated 550 trick-or-treaters.

Children donated wrapped candy at one of Molen’s three area locations in exchange for money. Molen Orthodontics paid trick-or-treaters $2 per pound.

In addition, children who wore costumes received an extra dollar.

The candy will be donated to local charitable organizations, including Santa’s Soldiers where the treats will be placed into stockings and sent to men and women serving the country. A portion also will be donated to the White River Family Center to make Christmas stockings for needy families. The remainder will be divided among the Auburn, Enumclaw, Bonney Lake and Sumner food banks.

It was Molen Orthodontics’ fourth year of having the community service event.

“Halloween is a fun holiday for kids of all ages,” said Dr. Rick Molen. “But too much candy can contribute to tooth decay. And for people who wear braces, eating sticky or chewy candy can harm their braces and may lengthen their orthodontic treatment.”

• Carrie Jenott, co-owner and representative of Once Sold Tales, an online book seller, recently signed a statement of support for the National Guard and Reserve.

“It’s important for companies to support the troops, both at home and deployed,” Jenott said. “One of the greatest ways we can support them is by providing job opportunities for Veterans, National Guards and Reservists. The economy may be suffering, but without intentional employer support, our nation’s defense suffers.”

Bob Borton – a Once Sold Tales manager during the weekdays, currently is a career lieutenant in the U.S. Navy Reserves.

With 30 employees, Once Sold Tales joins 890 other businesses and organizations and 33 Chambers of Commerce in the state that have signed the statement of support.

With offices in Auburn and Kent, Once Sold Tales sells used and new books and media online, and aids local libraries, charities and non-profits with book drives and fundraising efforts.
