It’s a Rancho Mesa Halloween Spooktacular!

Halloween looked a little different for all of us, this year. But, that doesn’t mean we couldn’t have a little fun while still remaining socially distant.

The team at Rancho Mesa Insurance got to work putting together special goody bags for all the Ranch Mesa kids: candy (small and KING sized), glow in the dark toys, plus masks and “han-itizer,” as the kids at our house call it.

To add to the fun, the kids were invited to stop by the Santee office in costume to safely collect their bags. From scary jokers to minions, skeletons and Peanuts, we even caught a few dinosaur jockeys in the mix. We were visited by Scream, an adorable witch, and my personal favorite, a serial killer. It was nice to see familiar faces, or eyeballs, we haven’t seen a while, in person.

The kids at the Boys & Girls Club received their bags last week and couldn’t be more excited. The look on Max and Julian’s faces says it all!

We hope you all had a safe and happy Halloween, and don’t forget to book that dentist appointment, now!

No Tricks by Rancho Mesa, Just Treats for the Boys & Girls Club

Over the last few weeks, as we’ve heard more and more about what a different Halloween this is going to be for children everywhere, we wanted to try and help put a few smiles on children’s faces. “With COVID-19, we all feel a sense of fatigue and desire to go back to life as it once was. But, for now that isn’t possible,” said Dave Garcia, President of Rancho Mesa. “We thought, as the Rancho Mesa family, we could maybe bring some joy to a few children this Halloween.”

So, we came up with the idea to package 500 trick or treat bags; loaded with candy, a gaiter facemask, and mini hand sanitizers donated by Berkshire Hathaway Homestate Companies, and distribute them through two of our clients: the Boys & Girls Clubs of both East County and South Bay.

Rancho Mesa team members, Kim Vasquez, Lori Stone, Alyssa Burley, and Sierra Stone ordered all the goodies and for the last four weeks have been filling the treat bags during lunch. 

“I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the four of them stepping up and finding the time to make this happen – and I can’t wait to see pictures of the smiles on those children’s faces,” says Dave.

Beginning this week, the Boys & Girls Clubs will begin handing out the trick or treat bags to all the kids that visit the clubs. With each bag, there is a printed card asking them to take a picture of themselves and send it back to us so that we can post their smiling faces for everyone to enjoy.

Be sure to check back next week as we post all those smiling faces. Happy Halloween from the Ranch Mesa family!

Ghosts, goblins and pumpkins, oh my! 

Witches flying on brooms through the sky. 

Halloween is particularly spooky this year,

Thanks to the Evil Dr. COVID we had extra to fear.

But fear not, our RMI team quickly got to work,

On a special surprise that would surely bring a smirk.

Bags filled with candy, toys and masks,

Even some hand sanitizer for those everyday tasks.

Then off to the Boys & Girls Club 500 bags went,

For all the sweet little ones whose days are spent,

With the amazing staff and team at the Boys & Girls Club,

So of course, we couldn’t help but want to spread the love.

From all of us at the Rancho Mesa Team,

We want to wish you all a fun, and safe, Halloween!
