Trunk or Treat
Saturday, October 31, 2009 – 3pm to 5pm
Cost: FREE
“Please join us for this family event – you’ll enjoy it as much as your kids do! Trunk or Treat will be held from 3:00-5:00 p.m. on the church parking lot.” Ok, I admit it, I had no idea WHAT a trunk or treat was but this website cleared it up. http://trunkortreat.homestead.com/ As you can see from the pictures below (some of the pics are actual pics from this church) they decorate their trunks and the kids trick or treat out of the trunk. Looks fun. 
NOTE: THIS EVENT IS BEING HELD AT TWO DIFFERENT CHURCHES AT THE SAME TIME SO IT’S UP TO YOU WHICH YOU CHOOSE TO ATTEND. I’d go with the one closer to where you live though the Nazarene one does look more organized.

Harrisonburg VA 22801

“We are located at 1871 Boyers Road in Harrisonburg, VA. This is at the intersection of Port Republic Rd. & Boyers Rd.”

Chik-Fil-A Halloween Party
Saturday, October 31, 2009 – 3:30 to 6:30pm
Cost: FREE
Costume Party for the kiddies at the local Chik-Fil-A in Harrisonburg. Costume judging (I think), activity bags, and the COW will be there! Don’t know how much fun it will be but it’s worth popping in on. If all else fails there will be a lot of kids around and they do have that indoor heated play area.
