The event provides a safe and festive environment for families to enjoy Halloween right in the heart of town.

Immediately following the downtown festivities, families can continue the fun at Henryetta First United Methodist Church, located at 1212 Lake Road, where volunteers will host a cheerful Trunk or Treat. Decorated vehicles, friendly faces, and plenty of candy will be waiting for trick-or-treaters in the church parking lot.
