Trick or Treating

Trick-or-treating may be on the damp side tonight (Oct. 31) with the rain we've received, but there are plenty of Halloween activities still happening. Here is a look at some of the activities planned in the area for kids to do in addition to door-to-door trick-or-treating.

Being named the best city for trick-or-treating isn't so much like taking candy from a baby as it is taking candy from someone who opens their front door when you ring it.

As a kid, I remember rushing home to dump all the candy out of my Halloween bag onto the floor to examine everything that I got. Some candy is better than others, and there is nothing better than receiving that full size Snickers bar, but we usually ended up with a big batch of some pretty nasty candy.
