KINGMAN – The line wrapped halfway across Kingman High School for more than three hours.

The Mohave County Sheriff’s Office Public Outreach Program’s 7th Annual Candy Crawl attracted nearly three thousand people on Saturday night between 5 and 8 p.m. Between the crowd and the noise, the event was more like a concert than an opportunity to snag buckets full of candy of which 18 vendors and MCSO deputies and staff gave out an estimated 500 bags of.

Some of those staff and displays included MCSO Search and Rescue, Sheriff’s Posse, MCSO SWAT team, MCSO boat safety officers, animal control, parks enforcement, Arizona Department of Transportation, Kingman Robotics Team #60 and Northern Arizona Fire District.

“This is our seventh year and we’ve been invited to branch out to Lake Havasu City,” said MCSO committee member Jody Schanaman.

MCSO will host their first Candy Crawl at The Shops at Lake Havasu located at 5601 AZ-95 #730 on Halloween day from 3 to 6 p.m.

“It’s all about providing a safe event for the community,” Schanaman said.
