ST. LOUIS – A North St. Louis neighborhood came together Monday night for a “Trunk or Treat” event at King’s Customs Auto, offering fun and healing for families still recovering from the May tornado.
The event was organized by Alderwoman Shameem Clark Hubbard of the 10th Ward and King’s Customs Auto, which was damaged by the tornado but has since rebuilt and reopened. The gathering aimed to bring families together in one of the hardest-hit areas, turning tragedy into community spirit just in time for Halloween.
“This is a testimony of some of the great things that is happening,” said Alderwoman Shameem Clark Hubbard. “Jay is reopened. He has his new sign hung. He’s had a lot of things done on the inside where it was literally raining inside his building…You can look over and see new roofs on buildings — those are good things.”…
