This well established event consistently attracts over 3500 children & families and because this year’s event is in the Mosaic Arena at the Manatee Fairgrounds, a well-known venue with plenty of fresh air and overhead cover, we anticipate another well attended event this year. “We are excited to again be working with the Manatee County Fair and the many community partners joining us this year,“ said Frank Brunner, Chief Executive Officer of Manatee Crime Stoppers. “Many non-profit & government agencies, as well as churches will be participating by having Trick or Treat booths in the Mosaic Arena.” The event not only provides children and families with a safe alternative for “Trick or Treating”, but also information for parents about community organizations and agencies which serve Manatee County families. Rather than going door to door in unsafe neighborhoods which lack sidewalks and streetlights, families can visit the Manatee Fairgrounds and enjoy an enhanced Halloween experience. Crime Stoppers is providing a venue with plenty of security, supervision, games, activities, and candy while also promoting public safety & community services available to families. Be sure to have the little ones (11 and under) dress up and participate in the Best Costume Contest!”
