Trick or Treat on Fremont Street returns | and NEW this year Trick or Treat for Cans donated to the Sunshine Division
Trick or Treat on Fremont Street returns October 31st, 4-6pm. Every year businesses within the Beaumont Business district hand out candy to trick or treaters on Halloween. This year, participating businesses will be giving out full size and fun size candy. A few lucky trick or treaters will also receive a gift card to a participating business of their choice! “Trick or Treat for Cans”, is a food donation event that gives back to the community. It will feature expanded hours (5-8pm).
The “Trick or Treat for Cans” event October 31st, 5-8pm consists of trick or treaters heading door to door on Halloween during Trick or Treating hours, but instead of asking for candy, they will be requesting canned goods to be donated to Sunshine Division. Volunteers will be given tote bags and maps of the neighborhood. This will help ensure each person/group covers a few blocks so no one has to walk too much and everyone goes to different houses. Volunteers can sign up by emailing Mary at bbaboardpresident@gmail.com
