Cranston Parks and Recreation Department HALLOWEEN 2026 Trunk or Treat

Pastore Parking Lot Thursday, October 22nd, from 5 to 7 pm

This year the Cranston Parks & Recreation department will be doing a Trunk or Treat. We are expecting two to three hundred children will coming through.

We are looking for individuals and/or companies to do one (or more) of the following:

  • participate with your vehicle “trunk” and your candy “treats” to give out
  • sponsor someone else’s vehicle by providing candy or treats (A company sponsor may provide a reasonably sized sign with the company name, if they choose to.)
  • donate candy (individually wrapped, in sealed bags)
  • donate individually sealed small bags of pretzels, chips, or cookies
  • donate individual juice drinks in boxes or pouches (NO glass or cans please)
  • donate small toys (fidget spinners, glow sticks, etc.)
  • donate small gift certificates, such as for free fries, ice cream cones, a meal, a meal discount, a food discount, etc.
  • donate cash to offset the cost of candy.

The Pastore parking lot can accommodate about thirty-eight vehicles. Set up will start at 3:30 pm. Plan your vehicle decorating time accordingly. Decorate a little or a lot, just please remember this is being geared towards children. Children will come through between 5 and 7 pm.
