It’s Back! Drive-In Trunk or Treat (Families)
Friday, October 29, 6:30pm
Join us as we celebrate Halloween by coming together at the Pepper Pike Learning Center to watch Hocus Pocus! Halloween trivia, treat bags, a costume contest, and glow sticks galore will surely provide fun for people of all ages. As an added bonus, we will have Orange Community Education & Recreation staff members and Orange Early Childhood teachers greet you as you drive thru "OCER Alley", a fun path with decorated trunks to be voted on by you! Proceeds generated from concessions and 50/50 raffle tickets will benefit the Orange Community Education & Recreation Scholarship Fund. Special thank you to our sponsor Waterway Carwash for helping to make this event possible! Please note: Trunk-or-Treat is open to Orange City School District residents only. Registration is required and space is limited. Get a flyer here or click here to sign-up!
