As most everyone that grew up in the Vienna area as children, we all remember going Trick or Treating with friends.  We had the hard plastic masks that you could not see through and the costumes that made us think we were some kind of superhero.  The last couple of years with COVID it has been tough for the little Trick or Treaters.

As almost like a Superhero the lodge held a Trunk or Treat on Sunday, October 31, 2021.  The festivities started at 1:00 pm.  The lodge had about 50 trick-or-treaters at that time.  The cars were decorated in spooky Halloween or NFL football themes.  We had all sorts of costumes like a huge rainbow unicorn (Mr. Torregrossa) to multiple huge tyrannosaurus rexes, to a tiny Superwomen, Disney was well represented with so many princesses from Elsa to Sleeping Beauty and others.

The lodge was surprised by the amazing turnout.  At the end of the day, we guestimate that we had over 200 kids and parents in attendance.  With this kind of turnout, we already have plans for another next year.  And next year we will do it even better!

I want to thank everyone involved in the Trunk or Treat from the members that dressed up in costume, the members that decorated their cars, the soup cooks, the pinata helpers, the smores makers, to the fire pit watchers, and to those just cheering everyone on.  It was an amazing day for everyone.  The joy on the faces of the kids, parents, and yes members were priceless.  Thanks, everyone for a job well done!
