TRUNK-OR-TREAT 2020
Will go from 5-7pm and is FREE to the entire community! Be sure to wear your costumes and be ready to Trunk-or-Treat for candy. Bring your friends!
Covid Precautions:
This year we have re-imagined Trunk-or-Treat to take into consideration additional safety precautions due to Covid-19. Here is what you need to know for this year:
- Masks will be required for all trunk attendants - bonus points if you work it into your costume!
- Gloves will be available to those handing out candy - again...creativity can make this fun!
- To create safe social distancing: We are asking the trick or treaters to remain in their vehicles and drive through the trunk displays.
- To eliminate hand-to-hand contact: We are asking Trunk attendants to drop the candy into treat bags (instead of allowing kids to select their treats).
- For increased ventilation: The event will be entirely outdoors this year - the building will remain closed to the attendees. (restrooms will be made available for all volunteers and trunk attendees)
Decorate a Trunk:
Sign up by emailing [email protected] to let us know! We need dozens of trunks to make this event a success. Last year we had over 2500 visitors from our neighboring communities join us for this safe trick-or-treating alternative. With the potential of limited trick-or-treating opportunities this year, we could experience record numbers of participants.
Donate Candy:
If you can’t attend the event but would still like to lend your support consider donating a few bags of candy. Candy donations of store bought, individually wrapped pieces of candy may be dropped off in the church office during regular business hours beginning October 1.
Epworth Ambassadors:
We will need help directing our community through this year’s drive-through style event. Ambassadors would be working outside, with masks on, and will help direct vehicle traffic. This will ensure an enjoyable experience for all who attend. For more information or to sign up email [email protected].
Teal Pumpkin Project:
This year we will once again have trunks with non-food “treats” to include children with dietary and medical restrictions.
