City of Martinsville issued the following announcement on Oct. 12.
The City of Martinsville and the Chamber of Commerce will be hosting a
Trunk or Treat on Saturday, October 27th, downtown from 5:30 pm -
6:45 pm. What is Trunk or Treat? It is a fun and safe way to celebrate
Halloween. Those who wish to hand out candy can park their vehicles
together and open their trunks to reveal decorations. Children can walk
from trunk to trunk to look at the decorations and receive candy and
treats. These events provide a controlled and safe family environment
for trick-or-treaters of all ages. If you don’t have a vehicle or don’t wish
to decorate it, don’t worry. You may bring a lawn chair and sit and hand
out candy downtown. All vehicles are welcome! Participants are encouraged
to get creative. The Chamber of Commerce will be giving
$50.00 to the best decorated vehicle! Second place will go home with
$25.00. After Trunk or Treat head on down to the Community Center for
the costume contest at 7:00 p.m.
