Trunk or Treat

No more going door to door. No more worrying about the safety of our children. The best part of it all is you get the same amount of candy and possibly more.

Children get to walk through the church parking lot in their costumes. They go from one trunk of a car to the next doing their usual trick or treating.

The cars are usually owned by people who attend the church; however, the event is open to anyone no matter what their beliefs are.

There are even other things for the children to do besides getting candy. There are games for them to play, police cars that they can sit in, bouncers to bounce in and food and drinks.

It is an entire evening of fun in one open ,lighted, and safe place.

It's too bad safety has to be such a concern on what used to be such a carefree holiday... but "trunk or treat" is a great alternative, and you've described the scene well.

A great concise report on a very positive solution to Halloween danger-sounds like a lot of fun.

Halloween has fallen off the face of the earth in terms of holidays. I live in a good neighborhood but I'm seeing less and less "trick or treaters" every year. I guess those Halloween horror stories are true.
