A great time was had by everyone in attendance for our Candy Cavalcade trunk or treat event Thursday evening! There was a great turn out considering there were several other things going on in the county, so we were honored you decided to make us part of your evening. It was reported to us that one "trunk" had prepared 800 bags and ran out of those and had to start passing out other items/candy.
Thank you so much to everyone who set up trunks and gave out candy:

We appreciate Puckered Up Lemonade and Poppins Popcorn for coming out and selling lemonade and popcorn to those in attendance. Pizza was also sold by Richmond County Hospice and we appreciate all of you who stopped by and got your supper while you were out here trick or treating.
We are so thankful that Captain Hook, The Sanderson Sisters, Evil Queen, Maleficent, and Cruella made an appearance and allowed photographs with our guests!
The trunks this year were amazing and many really stepped their game up after the huge pirate mast and television made their appearance last year with Daymark! This year we had a DJ skeleton, a carnival, Shrek, Cookie Monster, Scarecrows, Astronauts, Candyland, a giant spider, and of course the holding cell that all the children had to get their picture made in- I even hear that Sheriff Woody was in lock up there for a little bit Thursday, not sure if Buzz was able to come to his rescue or if he got out for good behavior.
Visitors each got a ticket to vote for their favorite trunks and those top choices went to:
1st Place- The Rock N Roll with their DJ skeleton
2nd Place- Carolina Hearts Home Care with their carnival theme
3rd Place- Bostick BP, Towing and Emergency Spill Response with Cookie Monster
We will get the prizes to the winners next week, and hope you all had lots of fun. We can't wait to see what you all come up with next year.
