What can be better than cars and candy bars? Byron Health Center staff and family will bring trick-or-treaters out a bit early to enjoy some pre-Halloween Trunk-O-Treat fun among parked cars with decorated trunks and plenty of candy. Members of the community are also encouraged to join in the Trunk-O-Treat event. Byron Health Center residents will also come out and help pass out the candy. There will be a fire roaring in the fire pit while popcorn and hot chocolate will be served. Warm up in the Eakin Family Room and catch a spooky movie on the big screen TV. This will be a fun-filled fall evening for all! The event will be held rain or shine and is free of charge.

Several local mascots, including the Fort Wayne Derby Girl’s Mean Jean, the Fort Wayne TinCaps’ Johnny TinCap, Crazy Pinz’s Stryker the Parrot, the Fort Wayne Mad Ant, Indiana Tech’s Maximus & the Indiana Tech Cheerleaders and the Fort Wayne Fire Department’s Spotz and are expected to attend the event along with the Huntertown Fire Department. Several area car clubs have also been invited to attend the event. Candy for the Trunk-O-Treat is being generously provided in part by several Byron Health Center friends and vendors as well as members of the Byron Health Center staff.
