What a great weekend I had in the neighborhood!!!<\/p>\n
I had the\u00a0privilege\u00a0of\u00a0participating\u00a0in the Hope Center’s trunk or treat event on Friday evening and emceeing the Broadway Market’s annual\u00a0Halloween\u00a0contest on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The Hope Center’s trunk or treat event was incredible. \u00a0In just one year, the event has nearly tripled in size!!! \u00a0It is a testament to the good work the Hope Center does for the neighborhood. \u00a0I brought nearly 200 pieces of candy and I ran out! Running the event in the shadow of the Central Terminal makes it special.<\/p>\n
Next year, I am going to have to up what I did with my trunk cuz some folks put together some very awesome displays.<\/p>\n
The Broadway Market…a totally different experience and a totally different place than the Hope Center. \u00a0But equal in its importance to the Broadway-Fillmore community. \u00a0The contest gave a lot of kids an opportunity to\u00a0participate\u00a0in an event that they wouldn’t be able to if the Market wasn’t there.<\/p>\n
I loved both!!!<\/p>\n
