Fourth
Annual Trunk Or Treat
Barnstead
Parks and Recreation will hold its fourth annual Trunk or Treat event
from 6:00 – 8:00 pm on Friday, October 23, 2015 in the parking lot at
Barnstead Elementary School. Vehicle parking will start at 5:30 pm, the
kids costume contest starts at 6:00, and “trunk” or treating at 6:30.
This is a free event for Barnstead children ages zero through ten.
We ask that
families enjoy the fun games and activities upon arrival, and not to
circulate around the vehicles before 6:30. This will allow vehicles to
park safely and will give them an opportunity get trunk decorations set
up.
After
voting, prizes will be awarded for the best decorated trunk and best
costumes. BPR will also be accepting donations of non-perishable food
items for the Barnstead Elementary School PTO’s End 68 Hours of Hunger
program. The PTO is also sponsoring a Jack ‘O Lantern contest.
BPR loves
your pets, but asks that they please be left at home for this event.
Thank you for your cooperation.
