Wheaton Church to Offer Safe and Fun Alternative to Trick or Treating

With autumn in full swing, Wheaton's Gary United Methodist Church will be getting into the spirit of the season with its third annual "Trunk or Treat" on Saturday, October 28 from 10am to 12pm. The event will offer kids a safe alternative to door-to-door trick or treating. Treats will be served from the trunks of church members' awesomely-decorated vehicles. Costumes, which should be church-friendly, are encouraged.

This year's Trunk or Treat will take place during Downtown Wheaton Association's "Boo-Palooza." The public is invited to take the short walk to the church parking lot on Hale St, right across from Memorial Park, and have some great fun at this spooktacular event!
