Families gathered at the East Meadow Ball Fields on Oct. 24 for the East Meadow Chamber of Commerce and the East Meadow Baseball Softball Association’s seventh annual Trunk or Treat event, which offered a safe and festive way for children to celebrate Halloween.
The afternoon featured decorated trunks and tables lined up throughout the fields, with local organizations, families and volunteers handing out candy and Halloween treats. Costumed children made their way through the event, collecting sweets and posing for photos in between activities.
Organizers said the goal of the yearly event is to provide a family-friendly environment that brings the community together. Candy giveaways, raffles and music rounded out the celebration, giving families a chance to enjoy the fall weather and connect with neighbors.
The East Meadow Chamber of Commerce thanked volunteers, sponsors and participating families for helping create what has become a seasonal tradition in the community.
