Spook Harbor Trunk or Treat

We are looking forward to a fun night for families at our second annual Spook Harbor Trunk or Treat event on Saturday, Oct. 25 from 4-6 p.m.

You can help make this community event a sweet success by donating candy at any of our school offices, the district office or at the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce. Each location has its very own Candy Monster waiting to be fed. The more candy they eat, the more smiles we’ll see on Trunk or Treat night!

We are also still seeking volunteers to help with the event.
