Trunk or Treat promotes a safe environment for neighborhood children and families to trick or treat. Kids can dress up in costume and trick or treat from trunk to trunk in the Laurel Park Elementary School parking lot. Parents, you provide the trunks and the treats for our trick or treaters by parking in the lot and handing out candy and treats from your car trunk! I would like to hand out treats to our trick or treaters! We need parents to park their cars and hand out treats to our Trick or Treaters. Candy, healthy alternatives or prizes are all welcomed. Be prepared to see at least 100 kids. Can we decorate our trunks? Yes! Decorated trunks make everything more fun! There will also be prizes for the best decorations! However, it is not mandatory. What if we can not participate in handing out treats from our car? No problem! Your child may still participate in trick or treating. However, we do ask that everyone who attends bring something to share. If you are not planning on handing out a treat, please donate a bag or two of candy or bring a healthy treat to share with those handing out treats! We will collect this upon check in to Trunk or Treat. How can I volunteer to help at Trunk or Treat? We need some great volunteers to help make our event a success. Volunteers can help with a number of jobs from set up/clean up , to greeting participants. From assisting in parking to running the games. If you could help, please sign up on the link below. What is the Teal Pumpkin Project and how can I participate? Every child should be able to experience the joy and tradition of trick-or-treating on Halloween. But kids with food allergies are often left out of the fun since most candy is off limits. Consider bringing nonfood items for kids with allergies. If you do, we will give you a print out of a teal pumpkin to hang at your trunk so kids with allergies know that they may come to you for a safe treat! https://www.foodallergy.org/teal-pumpkin-project#.V_6vO-ArLIU When does trick or treating begin?
