Karin Edmond will carry on her Christmas Candy Drop tradition on Dec. 16, in its 2nd year without the C-54 cargo plane which typically drops the candy for children at the Dare County Regional Airport.
The annual event was derailed last year by a tornado and the pandemic. The last of the original pilots who did the candy drops in the 1940s in Berlin, 100-year-old Gail Halvorsen, is expected to return for this year's re-enactment in Dare County.
