Volunteers and sponsors are needed for this year's annual Community Trick or Treating (Indoor) at the Fright Nights LLC Haunted House. This event is a lights on, no scary sounds or costumes, free event for the public to get the "non-scary" walk through of the haunted house located in the basement of Central Square Cultural & Civic Center.
Volunteers are placed throughout the haunted house with candy and treats to pass out to the kids as they walk through the non-scary attraction in a safe environment for trick or treating.
Volunteer Rules:
- Bring candy or treats (typically around 200+ children)
- No scaring children
- Non-scary costumes
- Be prepared to help out kids who may wish to leave or not know where to go next
- Be early to get to your spot (3:30 p.m.) and be prepared to help clean up your area at 6:00 when the trick or treating ends
- Have fun!
Please contact the Glenwood Chamber & Welcome Center if you have any questions or concerns.
