special prize stuck in their gumball machine (Kenan Petersen) at Exeter’s
Trunk or Treat on Halloween.
Exeter held their first ever Trunk or Treat downtown in
front of the fire hall. The event, sponsored by the Exeter Public Library
was a huge success.
Exeter Librarian Lynette Trauger was thrilled with the
results, “We had a great turnout, a lot more than I expected. We had 100
hot dogs ready and they were gone. It was a win win situation for the
younger crowd and the older crowd.”
The streets were blocked off and over 20 vehicles and stands
were set up to pass out goodies to the trick or treaters. After passing
through the trunks attendees could enjoy a hot dog supper in the warm senior
center where there was more candy to collect.
Fire department members passed out candy from the ambulance
and a fire truck.
All of the food was donated along with the cotton candy that
was spun inside the senior center.
Trauger is already making plans for next year’s event and
plans to incorporate feedback from young and old.
