Grand Valley Trunk of Treat and Chili Cookoff

This community event combines two classic fall traditions: a trunk-or-treat (a safe, organized alternative to door-to-door trick-or-treating where families decorate car trunks and hand out candy in a parking lot) with a chili cookoff competition. Families can enjoy the festive Halloween atmosphere, collect treats, sample homemade chili entries, and participate in community fun—all in one convenient location. It's a great way for neighbors to connect and for kids to celebrate the season in a welcoming, supervised environment.
