Accessible Halloween in Summerside

So Treat Accessibly started in 2017 out of Toronto. A young girl had asked her dad how a boy in a wheelchair was supposed to trick-or-treat as all the homes in the neighbourhood had stairs. And so the event was created from that. This year is a little bit different. We're being one of the streets that is recognized nationally for supporting Treat Accessibly. And so our event this year is on Halloween from 4 to 6 pm. So we're asking people to be mindful of that, that we have our special friends coming out from 4 to 6, and we might just need some extra kindness and some space and some patience while those children are navigating through the streets before the crowds are really fully here. We want the children to come. We want to see them. We hope the snow is gone. I hope it is. I hope it's a wonderful day. I hope all of our children who would participate in Treat Accessibly are able to still come out, even though it looks again a little different this year, and I hope they're able to come and participate. Because that's really most important and I think that is what neighbours really talk about is just seeing the smiles and the laughter and the excitement from all of the children.
