Milford Kids Prepare For Halloween

Each year one of the most interesting and spectacular times in my neighborhood is Halloween. Where I live in Lexington Green, locals find it attractive this time of year. The community is a closed in community with about 450 houses spread across three very distinct developments.

The people in Lexington Green have actually grown accustomed to the very large swath of kids that arrive each year with their parents. The "Trick or Treaters" go house to house in their usual array of costumes scaring the neighbors in exchange for candy.

Last year I personally greeted about 500 hundred of the masked masqueraders right at my front door. The kids who arrived were not only limited to my neighborhood, I soon discovered that cars parked all along the entrance had kids getting out from as far as Bridgeport, but mostly they were locals right here in the immediate area.

With the large swath of open land, I discovered that many people in Milford, with kids, prefer housing developments because of the perception of safety and security that they have. Lexington Green is one such place, as it has lots of street lighting many responsible adults walking around with their kids and a large open green that is used to host an annual neighborhood costume party.

The association does not forbid outsiders from entering our community to "Trick or Treat" nor does it liberally advertise it. Hopefully this year will be a fun filled celebration that will bring lots of fun and joy to our neighborhood community once again. Certainly you are all are welcome to bring your kids to my house for a treat.

Happy Halloween From The Frank Campaign.

Wishing everyone the best time ever this Halloween. I will be at my home greeting all the "Trick or Treater's" in their costumes. If this this year is anything like last year I would recommend that parents bring their kids to the Lexington Green Development. This is a safe private development with nearly one thousand homes, spread across three large sections.

Last year, not anticipating the rush of children and families that arrived at my home I ran out of candy and had to call it quits early. This year I am way more prepared. I expect about 500-1000 knocks at my door from every type of Monster, Super Hero, and Goblin imaginable.

One of the things that I enjoyed most last Halloween was dressing up in costume myself, and giving the kids a good and unexpected scare. My step daughter really thought it was funny, and I wish I had taken a few pictures to post here.

For any parents who may be interested in attending there will be a formal reception on the development green between 4:30-6:00P.M. There you will be able to meet the adults who live in the Lexington Green Development, enjoy free coffee and donuts, and have a chance to show off any costumes you or your children are wearing. Hope to see you there.
