Fruita’s trunk or treat is happening on October 21st and trunk or treat has been happening for years in and also all over the united states. It gives kids a safer environment to go trick or
treating.
Trunk or treat started in the mid 1990’s in Michigan from church groups to provide a safer environment for younger trick-or-treaters. It used to be on the 31st or shortly before in October that involves the community getting together in a parking lot and they decorate their cars and give out candy from the back of their trunks. This soon started going around the United States and most towns have them now.
“I really like trunk or treat I like walking around in my costume and getting candy.” says Jacks Prochnow
Fruaita’s is expenting 2,500 kids and I don’t think they are counting adults. It’s going to be on October 21 first from 10-12 on main street in Fruita. Trunk or treat gives kids the opportunity to interact with the community. It is also a great way to stimulate your kids. There will also be a winner of the best costume and decorations on their cars.
“Trunk or treat has been in the works since July, so for about 4 months now” says Hannah Bhur, someone who has been working on trunk or treat.
I think that trunk or treat is a great way for kids to enjoy the committee and get to know them better and to see the committee that they are going to run someday. Are you going to trunk or treat,if so how did you enjoy it?
