Costume Contest Winners
Nearly 100 Trinidad merchants participated in this year’s Safe Trick-or-Treat for Kids on Friday, October 30th from 3 to 5 p.m. Participating businesses also took place in voting for their favorite costumes for the costume contest sponsored by The First National Bank in Trinidad. Each participating merchant was given 10 “voting tokens” to award to their favorite costumed trick-or-treaters as they visited their establishments. Trick-or-treaters who received tokens returned to The First National Bank lobby at 5 p.m. for a tally of the “votes”. The top four costume contest winners received prizes donated by local businesses, which included trophies, award ribbons, free swim passes to Raton Regional Aquatic Center, Tri Peaks Theatre movie passes along with other toys and prizes sponsored by The First National Bank in Trinidad.

Community asked to help with 23rd Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive
This year will be the 23rd year that The First National Bank in Trinidad has sponsored an annual Thanksgiving Food Drive in Trinidad. Over the years, countless families have received a Thanksgiving surprise on the Sunday before Thanksgiving when volunteers delivered gift certificates for groceries and dining out at local restaurants. “The Bank will be collecting cash donations and distributing grocery gift cards to families in need this year.” says First National Bank in Trinidad event coordinator, Marcie Valdez.
“In the past, many families were so overwhelmed that they could not find the words to express their gratitude,” says Marcie. “The generosity of the people, businesses and organizations in this community has been unbelievable! We hope that this year will be no different.”
