Friday evening, we hosted our very first Trunk or Treat event at the Patch, and what a wonderful success it was! With 13 creatively decorated trunks and more than 130 costumed kiddos and their families joining us, we were thrilled by the turnout. We truly had no idea what to expect, but we couldn't have been happier with the community support and participation.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the businesses and individuals who decorated a trunk - Shannon & Mike Donaghue, Jennifer Dahn, Sheila & Jeff, Cushing Rural Fire Department, The Drive In Valley Sweets, Firehouse Subs in St Croix Falls, CobblingAround, Chateau St. Croix Winery, Melody & Chris Stanbery, Shepard of the Valley Church, River Road Ambassadors, Chris with Papa Murphy’s Pizza, Steph Dauffenbach, Gemma, and Anne &
Gene Jensen! We appreciate everyone who volunteered their time, helped behind the scenes, and contributed to making this event such a success. Your generosity and enthusiasm helped create a fun and memorable evening for so many families.
Following the Trunk or Treat, we showed It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. Several families stayed to enjoy the movie along with some popcorn, making for a perfect ending to a festive evening.
Thank you to all the families who chose to spend their Friday night with us. We hope everyone enjoyed the Trunk or Treat experience and the movie that followed!
We're already brainstorming ideas and making plans for next year's event, and we can't wait to do it all again. Thank you once again to everyone who helped make our first Trunk or Treat such a fantastic community event!
