For the first time in over 25 years, Sugar Mill Plantation's family Halloween trick-or-treating tradition has been canceled due to debris and damage left by Hurricane Milton.

"It is with sadness that Hurricane Milton has forced our community to close due to extreme degradation of our streets, the piles of debris, some as high as cars, and many of our street lights are out of service, leaving areas unlit," the subdivision's homeowners association announced in a press release.

The Sugar Mill Plantation subdivision on Old Kings Road South in Flagler Beach typically draws more than 2,000 trick-or-treaters on Halloween to a fun and safe environment. The streets are closed and children, parents and even babies in arms are dressed in costumes.

“Our community has enjoyed being part of an ongoing tradition, and we regret that we must cancel the celebration," HOA President John Cibiras, said in the press release.
