A heartfelt thank-you to Swanson’s, Alaska Commercial Company, and Christy’s Grocery for generously donating candy to make our Trunk or Treat such a spooktacular success! We’re also so grateful to all the participants and community organizations who came out to celebrate with us and help make the event so special. Your generosity, enthusiasm, and community spirit make all the difference.
