Halloween candy is a sweet treat for kids and a nightmare for parents, but this Halloween, kids can turn their goodies into cash and donations for charities. Thirteen Metro Dentalcare locations around the Twin Cities are sponsoring Halloween candy buybacks on Nov. 2.
Who: Kids and their families from all over the Twin Cities are invited.
What: Turn left over candy into cash. Participating Metro Dentalcare practices are offering $1 per pound of candy to children 12 and under, up to three pounds per child. Kids and their families will be treated to healthy snacks, a free toothbrush and toothpaste and prizes.
When: From 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Nov. 2
Where: The thirteen participating practices are:
Blaine, Brooklyn Center, Burnsville Children’s Dentistry, Chanhassen, Chaska, Coon Rapids, Cottage Grove, Lakeville, Maple Grove, Maplewood, Oakdale, Richfield and St. Louis Park

Why: Have fun, make a few dollars and learn healthy dental habits.
The candy collected will be donated locally to Tubman and Second Harvest Heartland, and to Operation Gratitude, to be sent to troops serving overseas.
