Last night was my church's annual Trunk or Treat event, and this year, we brought back Hot Dog Hill, an area where we serve free hot dog meals to trick-or-treaters and really anyone who wants to stop by. I was part of the team that helped assemble 1,400 hot dog meals in the afternoon. It was a fun time since we had a bunch of worker bees to make it happen!
Then the meals were loaded up on rolling carts, ferried upstairs by elevator, and delivered to the tables that had been set up outdoors. My church is a downtown church and gets a few thousand trick-or-treaters each year, so we knew to be prepared. The last time they did hot dogs, I hear that they did 1,200 and distributed them all. Last night, we gave out 1,400 and could have given out more. I think we're looking at a minimum of 1,500 next year. People seemed so grateful!
This year, I noted lots of cute policemen and firemen, like this adorable little guy.
And my Sunday school friends Dawn and Warren were there with their grandson, a Chick-fil-A cow. Isn't he cute?
We have lots of fun themed "trunks" for giving out candy, including this one featuring "Phil" and "Miss Kay" from Duck Dynasty.
But my favorite, you tea-loving friends will not be surprised to hear, was this one.
It was a fun evening that made a lot of little folks (and big ones too) quite happy!
