10/30/15 FRI - Halloween Trick or Trunk - Mahomet

Post by Runnin'6712 »

We were invited to make an appearance at the 1st annual Halloween Trick or Trunk in downtown Mahomet. The organizers were hoping to have around 200 kids show up for the event since the businesses that were involved decorated their tailgates / trunks / liftgates in Halloween decorations. They also listed it on local social media which was both good and bad. Instead of "hopefully" 200 kids showing up they had an estimated 1,200 kids show up! The businesses were making candy runs to the local Walgreens and IGA about a half hour into the event. The lines on each end of the street were about a block long. Once we came out to the street we posed for countless pictures and had a good time. They want us back next Halloween! Unfortunately, we didn't get any of pictures of us.
Troop time was 2 hours.
