MARGATE - Parents went all out decorating the tailgates of their vehicles Friday night for the city's second annual Trunk or Treat event, held in the parking lot at the Eugene A. Tighe Middle School.
The event was organized and sponsored by the Margate City Police Department and the Margate Mothers Association.
Dancers from Leslie's Dance Studio of Margate entertained with their rendition of Michael Jackson's "Thriller," and other Halloween songs.
Special visitors included Santa Claus and Lucy the Elephant, who will soon be shedding her metal scaffolding following a year-long restoration project.
But it was the children dressed up as ghosts, goblins, scary monsters, and the prettiest angel ever, that stole the show. They walked from vehicle to vehicle collecting candy treats.
And typical of Margate generosity, the event collected a boatload of new or gently used winter coats that will be distributed to those who need them.
