Trunk-Or-Treat With Masks Required Is In West Chester Tonight

WEST CHESTER, PA — Creative Halloweening in West Chester Borough will consist of a trunk-or-treat vehicle drive-through on Wednesday evening.

Mayor Dianne Herrin's office announced a socially distanced, masked drive-through trunk-or-treat event happening tonight, starting at 6 p.m.

The borough's Department of Parks and Recreation and community partners are sponsoring the event, and invite people to come out with their children, but wearing masks and in their vehicles.

Walk-ups cannot be permitted for safety reasons.

The borough asks that participants slowly drive through the back parking lot of the West Chester Municipal Building at 401 E. Gay St. They should enter the parking lot via Adams Street and exit via Penn Street, to keep traffic flowing in one direction.

Trunk-or-treat starts at 6 p.m. Wednesday and will continue until treats are gone, or until 9 p.m., whichever comes first.

This activity is free and donations will be accepted to help cover costs, the borough said.

The following organizations and businesses are making the event possible:

• West Chester Police Department and West Chester Brotherhood of Police
• West Chester Borough Council
• N.E. Thing Productions (Come see their special light show!)
• Otto's Mini & BMW
