Trunk N Treat brought THOUSANDS of children and parents to our church at Community Bible Church on Sunday, October 26th. An hour after the event was suppose to be over, the last of the children made their way through the line.
We had 4 rows of trunks filled with treats. We had a soccer field of games and food. We had one heck of a great time, and the kids did too!
This year Bradford Realty Group decided we were going to go for the Fall Festive Trophy. We wanted something simple, but yet cute. We wanted festive, but yet not over the top. We must have done it just right! We WON!!
While the event was a lot of fun and really all about the kids, we could not let the opportunity go by to let others know about what it is that we do. It is a great time to hand out business cards, flyers, brochures, etc. Trunk N Treat is another example of how you can give to the community, but also share your business with others.
Last year, I received a listing from Trunk N Treat. I also received calls from people who had general questions. It really was a success on so many levels.
The more you are out and involved in the community, the more you will find success within your business. However, do not do it for the wrong reasons! The COMMUNITY MUST ALWAYS COME FIRST!!! If you give from the heart, you will be rewarded abundantly.
This year was a very creative year for the Trunker's. Some really put time and effort into their trunks. The smile on the children's faces, the rumbling of parent's laughter was all more than we could have expected. Trunk N Treat is an event, that we will NEVER miss!
Now to start preparing for next year! This year we planned for 3000, next year I think we better start at 4000!

Hey Brande,
This is such a great idea.
My daughter's Mom's Club does something similar, I just love it. Personally I have a pick-up truck and that could be fun too. Keep up the great work being involved, it's a matter of giving first!
BTW, I remember you have a daughter in the military, I hope she's doing well!
I remember you talking about what an opportunity this represented last year on several levels. Helping to create a safe environment for the kids, giving of your time and effort, and doing some marketing.
on winning! And what a cute cowgirl!
Morning Brande,
What a great idea and way to participate in the community. Congratulations on winning the trophy. We live and work in a retirement community so we don't get to see the little ones all dressed up on Halloween night. This would be a great way to accomplish that and more. Thanks for the post.
Brande, great deal. I can remember how this worked out for you last year and I am sure that it will work again this year.
Brande- What a great event. I know many churches in our area host Trunk or Treat events. What a great way to have fun with the children.
Brande looks like y'all had a blast! Best wishes for next year!
