Siesta Key vendors and visitors enjoyed the annual Safe Treats Halloween event on Oct. 30.

Families brought their costumed children to the key's North Village for an afternoon of trick-or-treating and fun. Various businesses along the strip brought out buckets of candy and prizes for kids to snatch up. Some of the day's costumed included pirates, princesses, zombie cheerleaders, and much more.
