Neighborhood “Trunk-or-Treat” – Sun, 10/28/23

FPC will be participating in a Trunk-or-Treat neighborhood event on Saturday, October 28th, 2023 from 5:00-7:00 pm. Each church will setup
in its own parking lot so the neighborhood children can walk from church to church for treats and games. The Fire Department will be here with the bucket truck πŸš’ – get a ride to the tree tops!

Plan to participate in this fun event by decorating the trunk of your car (creative and fun, but not scary) and handing out treats or by hosting a game for children to play (bean bag toss, etc.). We will set up in the parking lot on First Street. This is a fun event and a great opportunity to get to know people in our neighborhood.πŸŽƒπŸ‘»

We need individually wrapped candy. 🍬🍭🍫
