LIMA, OH (WLIO) - The first-ever Community Trunk or Treat set for this Saturday is already looking to be a big success.

Organizers say that 65 businesses will be on hand to pass out candy and other goodies to the kids. The Lima Police Chief Angel Cortez wanted to do a big community-wide event that would be safe for everyone for Halloween. So they came up with the idea for the Trunk or Treat and they are looking to have a big crowd for their first time out.

"With the weather being nice, we're expecting at least, you know, 1,500 to 2,000 or more kids and families coming out and I think it's going to be an awesome event," stated Sgt. Matt Douglass, Lima Police COP Program.
The Community Trunk or Treat will be this Saturday, October 29th from noon to 2 p.m. in the west parking lot of Lima Senior. You're asked to enter on Spartan Way off of Jackson Street.
