The HSA would like to extend a HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to our first ever Trunk or Treat! Your excitement and enthusiasm made this event such a success, and a little rain couldn’t bring us down. Your effort in decorating your trunks, tables, and in some cases…yourselves, was amazing! Thank you again for a wonderful afternoon. Enjoy all that candy!

We are planning on running the event “rain or shine” and we will use the school gym for the festivities if needed.
Please remember to wear your costumes, and bring along $5 cash, candy for 130 children, and any decorations for your trunk or table. We are looking forward to a fun afternoon!
