Volunteer "Trunkers" Needed!
We are looking for volunteers to help put on a safe, community-friendly Trunk-or-Treat event!
Individuals, families, or groups are welcome to participate. Trunk-or-Treat volunteers participate by decorating the trunks of their cars and bringing candy to hand out to the trunk-or-treaters. The decorated trunks will be on display in the library parking lot from 12-2 PM. Set-up can begin at 11 AM. For the safety of the trunk-or-treaters, no cars can be moved within the designated Trunk-or-Treat area between 12 PM and 2 PM.
Trunk decorations can be any theme, as long as it is family-friendly! You can make it as creative or as simple as you like. Keep in mind, there will be a prize for “Best Trunk!”
Sign up or get more info by emailing youthservices@muhlenbergcommunitylibrary.org or by calling (610)929-0589.
