The Statesboro Family YMCA will host the 4th Annual Trunk or Treat on Saturday, October 28th, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Local businesses and organizations will host trunks to hand out candies and goodies. Costumes are optional. There will be a costume contest at the event, as well as on the Statesboro Family YMCA’s Facebook and Instagram page.
The Trunk or Treat event is designed to provide community members with a safe alternative to door-to-door trick or treating.
“I love this event," said Hannah Beggs, Executive Branch Director. "It is so great to see all of the amazing families and see the smiles on the kids’ faces. Last year we had 25 community organizations decorate their trunks and provide candy to over 700 kids. I am looking forward to the overwhelming community support again this year.”
Vendors And Volunteers:
Organizations or businesses that are interested in decorating a trunk and passing out candy can contact Hannah Beggs via email at [email protected] or call the Statesboro YMCA at (912) 225-1962.
Organizations and businesses that participate are asked to bring at least 6-8 bags of candy with them and arrive no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day of the event to set up. The business or organization with the best decorated trunk will receive a YMCA gift basket with a FREE 1-month YMCA membership.
