Trunk-or-Treat in Colts Neck on Sunday

Colts Neck residents will finally get their Halloween.

Almost two weeks after a traditional Halloween, children in Colts Neck will finally get their shot at a bag full of candy.

Mayor Jarrett Engel announced on Friday that a trunk-or-treat is scheduled in Colts Neck for Sunday at 2:45 p.m. in the Primary School parking lot.

For adults, park your car front first into the lot and open your trunk to reveal your candy. For those who particularly missed the holiday this year, decorating your trunk could be fun! It is suggested that each car have a garbage bag to help clean up after the event.
