VIDEO: Trenton Kids Gather Flying Marshmallows
Trenton Patch editor Nate Stemen caught up with some Trenton kids and a few Trenton teachers to find out what they wanted most at the annual Marshmallow Drop at Elizabeth Park.
Hundreds of children dragged parents and family members through a damp field at Elizabeth Park Saturday to find and collect flying marshmallows.
A wet marshmallow may not seem like a prize, but each soggy, sweet treat could be exchanged for a piece of candy or a tiny prize.
The marshmallows were dropped out of a hovering helicopter and children from all around Downriver ran as fast as they could to gather as many as possible.
