Wear your costume and take part in Trunk-or-Treat while you visit the patch on our most exciting day of the season.
What is trunk-or-treat?
Imagine door-to-door trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, but instead of houses, it’s decorated trunks, and instead of a neighborhood, it’s a parking lot. This is a fun and safe option for kiddos to experience all the treats with no tricks!
Please register so that we can make sure to have enough candy! We will not have dinner available for purchase this year but will have popcorn and drinks available for small fee. If you’d like to host a trunk, you can sign up for that, too. We ask for a $5 donation for trunk-or-treating. All of the pumpkin patch activities will be open to enjoy.
This event takes place during our annual pumpkin patch! For more information about Pumpkins on the Prairie, head to pumpkinsontheprairie.org.
CANDY DONATIONS
We’re gathering donations of candy and small toys to hand out to all the children who come trick-or-treating in the church parking lot during our Fall Festival. This is one of our biggest community events of the year, and we want to make sure every trunk is stocked!
We plan and prepare for 500 children. We PREFER peanut free, but know that is sometimes hard to find. Instead, consider items like stickers, play dough, or trinkets. Pro tip: Skip the seasonal aisle at the grocery store and grab a big variety bag from a warehouse club or dollar store instead. The per-piece price is usually much lower, and kids care more about the size of their haul than the brand. Budget-friendly options like Tootsie Rolls, Dum Dums, and Smarties will help your donation go even further.
Collection bins will be in the Narthex and Worship Center Lobby. Please bring donations by Thursday, October 22.
