Dearborn First UMC’s Trunk or Treat was Howling Good Fun!
More than 500 kids and kids-at-heart braved the rain and chilly temperatures to take part in some Family-friendly Halloween fun! Princesses, Super Heroes, Ninjas, Dinosaurs, Snack foods, Monsters and more showed up in their Halloween best. Some of our activities were converted into take-home versions, but kids still enjoyed the SLIME ZONE and cider and donuts from Cafe Arbol!
THANKS TO ALL who came out - the planners and volunteers - the youngsters and the trunksters alike - all had a great time. We can’t wait to do it again next year!
