WHAT IS TRUNK or TREAT?
SAVE THE DATE! OPEN YOUR TRUNK!
INVITE NEIGHBORS & FRIENDS!
CHECK OUT THE DETAILS ON THE REVERSE SIDE
Trunk of Treat is a safe alternative to traditional Halloween festivities that encourage participation from the entire
church body. Picture our parking lot filled with vehicles,
each decorated in a variety of fun themes. Then imagine
the trunks filled with treats! That’s where the name
“TRUNK or TREAT” comes from. Next, imagine another
area filled with games, activities, and more treats.
The Trunk or Treat portion of the afternoon/evening will
run from 4:30-6:30pm, followed by a Family Movie Night
in Kirby Hall with pizza and snacks as we show the
classic...
“”It’s a Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown”
&
You are invited to this great event, where your family can
plan how to decorate the trunk of your vehicle and
possibly win a prize for best decorations!
The parking lot will be roped off for safe trunk-or-treating,
freeing kids and families to skip or stroll from place to
place, collecting candy trunk to trunk, all the while being
loved on by our church family.
HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?
 Sign up to reserve a parking place for your
vehicle
 Donate a few bags of candy
 Help with games / snack area
 Provide a snack (ideas will be given)
 Serve pizza & snacks during movie time
SATURDAY, OCT 25
4:30PM—8:30PM
Farmington Hills Church of God
Once you sign up to participate (at the Welcome Center),
you will be contacted by Clyde Beaver with further
instructions. If you are willing to do a trunk, you will be
given guidelines along with times to arrive to set up on
the day of the event. If you are willing to help in any other
way, you will be notified as to when, where, and how you
will be needed.
