"I think it's a great opportunity to have a safe environment for kids and families to enjoy trick-or-treating," said Curt Vincente, director of parks and recreation.
Children are also invited to trick-or-treat in the center's blocked off parking lot for more candy and fun.
"We have a lot of fun," Vincente said. "It's a great community event."
