Lake Mirror turns into a candy trail Monday evening as Lakeland Police and Fire departments host their annual Truck or Treat from 5 to 8 p.m. along the lake’s north and east bank and at adjacent Fire Station 1. The free event is open to everyone, though it’s aimed squarely at kids 12 and under, who can expect costumed officers, firefighters, and more than 15 stops stacked with candy and safety giveaways.
According to lakelandgazette.info, the event is open to everyone but is targeted to children ages 12 and under, and organizers are encouraging costumes for the occasion. Families attending can meet Lakeland firefighters and police officers, trick-or-treat at different fire apparatus and police vehicles, and learn about how to stay healthy and safe at stops scattered around the lake, per the same outlet. Admission is free, according to lakelandmom.com.
With more than 15 display and treat stops planned, the gazette’s report notes that children can collect candy, Halloween goodies, and safety giveaways throughout the evening — though everything is handed out first come, first served while supplies last. That first-come setup means families hoping to hit every stop may want to arrive early, since the gazette’s report does not indicate restocking during the three-hour window.
