What is Trunk-or-Treat?
A favorite NES Halloween tradition, Trunk-or-Treat is a pre-Halloween extravaganza in the NES parking lot, where families decorate their cars and provide a fun and safe trick-or- treating environment for our kids. All members of your family are welcome to attend (siblings, grandparents, etc!). We will have a DJ, foodtrucks, snacks, cocoa and coffee for purchase and prizes for the most creative cars! Wristbands are $6.00 per child (or free if you decorate a trunk and pass out candy). Please note: all wristbands will be sent home via backpack mail if you register by the deadline. Please contact Kari at k.scadron@comcast.net with any questions!
There are two ways to join in the fun!
Get creative and decorate the trunk of your car to enter our trunk contest—OR, simply bring your kids in their costumes and join us for trick-or-treating, dancing, and a great time!
Here’s what to do if you are decorating a trunk:
1. Register your vehicle for FREE by filling out the registration form. All trunks must be registered! Please register as soon as possible to ensure your spot in the parking lot. Decorating a trunk entitles you to free entry writsbands for the children in your family.
2. Decorate your Trunk! The Internet is filled with Trunk-or-Treat decorating ideas. Pinterest is a great resource! Themes are always fun, or simply gather Fall items from around the house for a simple and festive display. Prizes will be awarded to our favorite trunks!
3. Pick up some small, PEANUT/NUT FREE treats or trinkets to hand out. (Candy must be in original wrappers. Also, the PTO will supplement your candy supply if needed until we run out.) Then set out your lawn chairs and enjoy a fabulous fall evening of family, friends and fun!
Here's what to do if you are attending but NOT decorating a trunk:
1. Complete the registration form and purchase a wristband for your children. Please register and pay ahead of time ($6 per child)—every child in your family needs a wristband to attend the event and we need to know how much candy to purchase to offset attendees who are not bringing candy and decorating trunks. Thanks!
NES kids and families LOVE this event--Please consider joining in the fun. The more families and trunks we have, the better!
