Perth Amboy, N.J. — October 23, 2026 — Firefighters from the Perth Amboy Fire Department joined students, families and school staff for a busy Trunk or Treat event at James J. Flynn Elementary School Friday evening.


Engine 1 and Car 6 attended the event along with a department member dressed as a Minion. The gathering drew a large crowd as children and families took part in the Halloween activities and collected candy.


The department shared a lighthearted message about the event, joking that children dressed as firefighters may have received a little extra candy.


The candy was purchased by the department's two fire unions for the community events scheduled throughout the Halloween season. Their contribution helped members take part in the celebrations and connect with local families outside emergency response duties.


James J. Flynn Elementary School is located at 850 Chamberlain Avenue in Perth Amboy. The school serves students in the city's public school system.
