While most children went door-to-door trick-or-treating Monday night, some jump-started their candy-filled holiday Saturday at a local parking lot.

 

Members of the Becker High School CIS 4607 Robotics team held their annual Trunk or Treat event in the parking lot of Becker Furniture World Saturday afternoon to the delight of many youngsters anxious to fill their buckets and sacks with goodies.

 

Trunk-or-treat is similar to trick-or-treating and features people parking their cars in a parking lot and opening up the trunks of their cars for kids to collect candy instead of going door-to-door.

 

The light rain throughout the day kept many people indoors, but for those who braved the weather, the affair was fantastic! Businesses and groups decorated the trunks of their vehicles to hand out candy in a safe and protective way.

 

Prizes were handed out for the best decorated trunk based on votes from the children who participated.
