Ocean Township, New Jersey-This is a shocking reality: Coronavirus cases continue to rise, and state health officials say that New Jersey is likely to be hit by a second wave in October and November this year.
Can Halloween and door-to-door tricks or treatments still be performed safely? This ocean Twp. Men want to make sure that they can still enjoy this beloved holiday-the six-foot hose is perfect for distributing candies within a safe social distance.
Marshall Fox (Marshall Fox), 44, works in his family’s flooring and carpet shop, located in Ocean Avenue (Ocean Twp.), Sunset Boulevard, Fox Floor. Last week, he was browsing Facebook when he discovered that an Ohio man posted something similar with a PVC pipe.
“I thought, okay, there are a lot of extra cardboard tubes piled around us for carpeting.” Fox said. “I can give away those for free.”
Marshall said: “This is crazy. I put it up on Monday, and now I am going to conduct a pipeline patrol. Every day, people are constantly calling the store or walking in and asking if we still have a pipeline. This is Non-stop.” “People put them in the mailbox. A woman is on the second floor, so I gave her a ten-foot tube and she will put the candy down from the second floor or tie it to the armrest.”
Fox provides these tubes completely free of charge. So far, he has distributed 200 test tubes. These tubes are usually very long, over 12 feet. But he has been cutting them to the required length, and most people require the use of six-foot tubes.
He said: “I paid so much that I actually started running underrun, but I called the supplier and ordered more products.” As of Friday morning, his pipe inventory was still sufficient.
Fox has two children, 15 and 12 years old. He asked them to go out to trick or treat or hang out with friends or hang out on October 31, but “I want to tell them to play safely. Wearing masks and social distancing. (Halloween) is one of the most special things. Kids can do.”
He said: “I don’t want to save Halloween stuff.” “We only have a million tubes like this, and they usually knot in the trash can. I never realized it would go crazy. But it’s cool because I met a lot of people and people with children. People kept asking them if they could donate somewhere, and I told them to donate to a Make-A-Wish Foundation because my son’s 14-year-old best friend has cancer.”
