BELLEVILLE -- Children sit down for treats at a Halloween party sponsored by the Belleville Recreation Department in this photo from the early 1960s.
Cowboys abound, although a Spiderman (a character that first appeared in the comics in 1962) a clown and a skeleton have found their way into the mix.
Belleville Recreation continues to sponsor seasonal activities and will sponsor a Halloween Celebration at Belleville High School stadium on Oct. 31 from 6 to 9 p.m. The event, open to Belleville residents, will feature a costume contest, pumpkin patch, music, train and horse and carriage rides, inflatables and treats.
