Lollipops and End of Summer Celebrations

I love wandering the internet looking for people's stories about candy. I found a wonderful news article from Exeter, ME last week; the kids who participate in the town's Summer Adventure Camp use lollipops as tokens at game booths in their end of summer celebration. They can win more candy or other prizes.

Games included "Wheel of Recreation" — a Wheel of Fortune type game in which children spun a dial and earned candy or went bankrupt; "Reccade — Arcade at the Rec;" and "Ring Toss."

"We're having a great time," said Ryan Foley, 10, of Exeter, who created and ran the Ring Toss. "I'm making cold, hard lollipops."
