Join friends and neighbors on October 31 at 5 pm for the annual Fall Festival but with a twist; Adult Trunk or Treating! What is an Adult Trunk or Treat? An adult trunk or treat is a Halloween-themed neighborhood block party where adults gather in a parking lot, decorate the open trunks of their cars with festive or spooky themes, and exchange adult-centric treats, such as wine, cocktails, alcohol minis, candy or specialty treats, rather than child-focused treats. People in costumes walk from car to car to collect treats, play games, etc. Get those costumes ready for a spooky good time! There will also be a costume contest with a prize for the winner, so sign up online to participate. The Fall Festival will also feature large inflatable games, corn hole, a live DJ, food trucks, ice cream vendor, and more. You won’t want to miss this! VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! The Clubhouse needs volunteers to sign up to decorate their trunks, golf carts, tents for the Adult Trunk or Treat on October 31. Only a limited number of spots are available, so don’t hesitate to sign up online! Questions? Call Caroline at the Clubhouse Activities Office or email her at clane@calmfla.com.
