Participate in a Trunk or Treat Event

Have you heard of the Halloween tradition of Trunk or Treat? We wrote about it a few years ago and now that we're heading towards Halloween, I want to put this on your radar. Hopefully there is one in your neighborhood. If not, perhaps organize one?
A Trunk or Treat is a mash-up of the traditional trick-or-treating and tailgating parties. Instead of visiting houses door-to-door to collect candy, an event is organized in parking lots and the trunks of cars are set up like mini Halloween stations. Kids visit each car to collect candy in the safety of school and church parking lots.
Here's a picture from Supermom-In-Training's family Trunk or Treat event last year. LOVE IT!

About this column
One of the many reasons the internet is so awesome is because you can peek into people's lives and be inspired. For families, the weekend is especially fun as the structure and routine of the working and school week is replaced by fun family outings, activities and home organization projects.
