Trunk or Treat is a family-friendly, trick-or-treat Halloween party guaranteed to be full of spooky cars, candy, and fun! This event includes trick or treating, dancing, and prizes for best costume and car decor.
Children and adults can wear their Halloween costumes and trick or treat from car to car.
Do you ❤️ HALLOWEEN??
Do you ❤️ DECORATING??
Do you ❤️ HAVING FUN?!
Then this is for you! Buy a parking spot to enter your car to win a prize for the “Best Car Costume!" Each car can be decorated simple, cute or spooky. Just be sure to have enough candy for the kids to trick or treat! We just ask that all candy be nut-free. Thank you!
If you don’t want to decorate a car, that’s totally spooktacular, too! Still bring your whole family for this evening of family Halloween fun! Wristbands will be available for purchase prior to the event, and on the day of the event.
