Treats in the trunk

Celebrating Halloween in a very different, not to mention very safe, way, parishioners of the Shavertown United Methodist Church decorated their car trunks to allow children to trick or treat in a safe environment. And there was nothing shabby about these decorations, either. There were spiders, pirates and all kinds of scary stuff, making for a fun evening for costumed children.
