Join us for a fun-filled morning of autumn excitement- it’s Trunk or Treat! We’re bringing families together to celebrate the season with sweet treats, creative activities, and plenty of community fun.

Come dressed in your friendliest costumes and get ready for a treat-filled day! Decorate your trunk and bring some fun surprises! Kids and parents alike can join in the spirit of the season. Walk from trunk to trunk and explore cars decorated with colorful, creative themes. Collect goodies and share smiles along the way.

But that’s just the beginning. Try your hand at fall-themed games that bring out everyone’s playful side.

This event is designed for everyone. It’s safe, family-friendly, and welcoming to all ages. Whether you’re here for the games, the costumes, or just the treats, you’ll find something to enjoy.

So mark your calendar and join us! Celebrate autumn in the best way – together, with family, fun, and festive cheer. It’s the perfect way to make memories and embrace the magic of the season.

  • This event is free to attend but please register so we be sure to accommodate all of the trunks and have plenty of treats for the kiddos!
  • Trunk or Treat is dependent on weather and will be cancelled in the event of rain.
  • Please either bring treats that are nut-free or keep treats that contain nuts separate from those that don’t to keep Trunk or Treat safe for all
