Scooby Doo, Pac-Man, and Brutus Buckeye were among the special guests that appeared this week in St. Mary School and church parking lot as a new tradition was born.
The St. Mary community hosted, what they hope to be, its first annual Trunk or Treat event. Forty vehicles put out their best costumes, decorations and games in hopes of being judged the best overall trunks at the event.
Student council members, teachers and parents voted the winner as the St. Mary Life Teen truck which included a full-sized pirate ship theme. Second place was awarded to the Passow family who dressed as the entire Scooby Doo gang and handed candy from the Mystery Machine. Pac-Man and PSR brought home third with life sized characters and prizes.
The Chardon Fire Department brought their vehicles in and handed candy to the trick or treaters on a beautiful night for late October. The CYO Booster Club and Northcoast Corn provided snacks for sale. All attendees agreed it was a fun and safe option for trick or treaters and the parents were happy to get extra use out of their little ones costumes. This event will undoubtedly return again next year!
