Donovan Live welcomes Brook Park children who petitioned mayor for later trick-or-treat time

Brook Park Mayor Tom Coyne, a fourth-grade teacher, and her students talked about how the children used lessons of government to stage a protest for longer trick-or-treat time.

Last week, fourth graders from Mrs. Hixon and Ms. Krivak's classes at Brook Park Memorial marched to city hall to demand longer trick-or-treat times.

It was part of a lesson on government. Students collected 200 signatures in a petition, then met with Brook Park Mayor Tom Coyne, who agreed to extend trick-or-treating an extra half-hour.

Monday night on Donovan Live, guest host Chris Tye welcomed Mayor Coyne, Mrs. Krivak, and two of her students: Dominic and Vivian, to talk about the experience. Watch in the player above.
