Halloween is a fun time for kids to get creative with costumes and go door to door collecting candy from friends and neighbors. But it becomes more "trick" than treat when the kids have food allergies. One wrong piece of candy with the wrong ingredients can have dire consequences. Red Sneakers for Oakley is an advocacy, education, and practical group started by families whose children face some of these issues every day. Lindsey Spangler of Peoria, whose daughter battles food allergy issues, saw the need to spread the word, educate the community and help raise funds for the efforts to share EpiPens with first responders, schools and the community.
