Trunk-Or-Treat!

Everyone’s heard about trick-or-treating, but trunk-or-treating may have just shown up on your TikTok “For You” feed. This new-ish Halloween tradition has become a favorite for families with young children. Trunk-or-treat events are often held in well-lit parking lots in a contained area, so children are at less risk of being hit by a moving vehicle. Trunk-or-treating also gives families and businesses an opportunity to get to know their community better.

On Saturday, October 28th, Hudson Chrysler transformed their dealership into a trunk-or-treat palooza for all trick-or-treaters to enjoy some delicious sweet treats and join in a few kid-friendly activities.  “I had the idea to do this event a while ago, and I thought this would be a great way for us to host a fun event for the community while advertising our business,” said Whitney Owen, a sales consultant at Hudson Chrysler. 

Prior to the event, the dealership reached out to many local businesses to see if they wanted to join in on the fun and hand out candy to the attendees. Fifteen businesses showed up at the dealership with bags of candy, temporary tattoos, and hair tinsel for kids. Between 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., nearly 400 kids and family members came to the dealership to join in on the spooktacular event. “It was a better turnout than we could have expected, and everyone had a great time. We ran out of candy about an hour in and had to run to the store to grab some more – I would call that a win,” said Owen.
