Trick-or-treaters from the East Meadow community enjoyed a spook-tacular time as they celebrated Halloween during the district’s annual Safe Halloween, held near the football field at East Meadow High School on Oct. 22.
Numerous varsity sports teams, organizations and high school clubs volunteered their time to dress in costume, design their own tables with Halloween themes and hand out candy to young trick-or-treaters. Hundreds of young children walked around the field dressed as superheroes, anime characters, book and movie characters, and scary creatures.
The clubs’ themes included comic book heroes, spooky shows and movies, wizards, skeletons, popular sports teams, and fairies. In addition to collecting tasty treats, children also participated in games and activities at each of the themed tables. An afternoon of fun was had by the young and older students alike.
