What is a Trunk or Treat?

A trunk or treat event has participants gather in one central location (grass around the Tiki Bar & pavilion). The cars get just as decked out as the kids, and then everyone goes from decorated trunk to decorated trunk to pick up some candy or prizes (and admire the creativity on display).
