(If you’re new to the area, Trunk or Treats are popular here! People decorate their trunk / back of their car in a certain theme, kids meander through the line of cars and stop to “Trunk” or Treat at each one, ending up with a basket of candy just like Trick or Treating. These are safe alternatives to Halloween if you need one, and many of them are held on a night prior to October 31 so you can enjoy Trunk or Treating AND traditional Halloween)
Please check directly with event organizers or local businesses for mask requirements, safety protocols, advance registration, and any last-minute changes. All information on our website is for informational purposes only – we are not qualified to provide health or safety recommendations.
