Join us on Sunday, October 29, 4:00-6:00 pm in the All Saints parking lot for Trunk-or-Treat! If you've never been to a "Trunk-or-Treat" event, imagine a trick-or-treating experience all in one place, going from car to car instead of house to house. Participants decorate their car trunk or truck bed and hand out treats from there. There will also be a few lawn games for the children to play.
Come for a safe, fun-filled afternoon for the whole family and bring your friends and neighbors.
We are also accepting candy donations now until Sunday, October 22. Donate in the children's hall or via our amazon wishlist.

Details for Prospective Participants
Thank you for your interest in participating in our 4th annual Trunk-or-Treat on October 29 at 4:00-6:00 PM. We are so excited to have you and family join us for the fun. Here are a few things you should know:
Choose a Theme
You will need to pick a theme for your car or SUV. It doesn't have to be elaborate-- even just simple holiday decorations from the Dollar Store are great. There are lots of ideas online or on Pinterest, and even some ready-made kits you can purchase. We are happy to help if you need ideas or any help!
Some examples of fun ideas are books/movies (Wizard of 0z, Star Wars, etc.), Fairytales or Nursery Rhymes, cartoon characters (Paw Patrol, Minions, Snoopy, etc.), Superheroes or Disney-themed, Game or Game show (Candy Land, Wheel of Fortune), or Bible Story (Noah's Ark, Jonah, Nativity, etc). Fall or Halloween-themed is also great, but please nothing scary.
Feel free to bring camping chairs and any other props or accessories for your car. Many people find it helpful to bring a small folding table or card table to place the candy bowl.
Costumes Encouraged
Costumes are lots of fun if you want to incorporate that as part of your car theme. But they are not required. Kids are encouraged to wear their costumes as well, especially if they are planning to trick-or-treat. PLEASE BRING YOUR CHILD A TRICK-OR-TREAT BAG. (We will have extras for anyone that needs one).
Plan Your Time
Cars/Trucks/SUVs participating in Trunk or Treat will need to arrive no later than 3:30pm to set up. You will be assigned a parking spot along the route. Trick-or-Treaters will arrive at 4:00 PM and we need all cars safely in place before then to ensure for their safety. The event will end at 6:00 PM, so please plan to stay with your car the entire time.
Safety
We will have the Trunk-or-Treat area coned off for pedestrian traffic ONLY. We will have arrows for a one-way flow of foot traffic. Half of the All Saints parking lot will be designated for parking, while the other half will be for the Trunk-or-Treat area. Street parking is also available.
Candy
We will provide 1 large bag of candy for each vehicle participating. You may with to bring additional candy. Please bring your own container (bucket, bowl, etc) to hold the candy. Some people prefer to also pass out trinkets or prizes along with the candy, which you are welcome to do.
Activities
A bounce house and lawn games will be available for kids after they have finished Trunk or Treating. Water will be provided in the hospitality room.
