Costumed children (and adults) were out in full force last night, trick or treating, or being a part of Trunk or Treat or Block Parties happening all over the area.

 Over three hundred children were a part of the Dearing Block Party on the patio of Dearing Christian Church. Minister JB  Brown says it was a great way to help kids have a fun and safe holiday.

 Brown says this year's event is a little bigger than in previous years.

 Brown is happy with the turnout with the Block Party, from volunteers to all who participated. Planning for next year's block party begins today.
