 Yes. Community is in your neighborhood. There is no one closer geographically. Trunk or treat is the main cause for the tradition of Halloween dying out. I want to see my neighborhood filled with decorations and every house handing out candy with kids flooding the streets. I want to ban trunk or treating because is has regressed community and tradition of Halloween. We get a dozen kids in the whole neighborhood  and only one in every ten houses participates. I am striving for community. 🫂 Our children deserve the same Halloween experiences we got.
