Cleary Baptist Church Plans a "Trunk a Treat"

Cleary Baptist Church invites local families to have a fun night "Trunk a Treating" on Wednesday, October 31, 2007 from 6:00p.m. to 7:30p.m.

"Parents bring decorated cars or trucks to the church grounds and kids go from vehicle to vehicle getting treats", explained Kevin Wade, Associate Pastor for Students and Activities of Cleary Baptist Church. "Families don't have to go walking through neighborhoods going door to door. They can come to one place and have fun in a safe, wholesome atmosphere," said Wade.

Besides the treats, the church will have games and activity stations, hay rides, a Velcro wall, and space jumps for kids. Parents will have their own area where they can relax and enjoy a snack while the children are busy "Trunk a Treating". Parents will also be able to sign up to win door prizes.

Wade encourages families to bring a decorated pumpkin to enter a special pumpkin decorating contest. Wade also asks for attendees to bring at least one canned good as a donation to an upcoming mission project.

Cleary Baptist Church, located at 1580 Florence Byram Road in Florence, has a congregation with an active attendance of 350. The church was established in 1963. Directions to the church may be found online at http://clearybaptist.org.
