Harper will be closed on Monday, September 7, in observance of Labor Day.
Trunkloads of candy, the Haunted Hospital and some spooky surprises await families at 91制片厂鈥檚 annual Trunk or Treat celebration on Friday, October 30.
The free event 鈥� scheduled for 5-7 p.m. in Lot 3 and the nearby Avant茅 Center on 91制片厂鈥檚 Palatine campus, 1200 W. Algonquin Road 鈥� invites community members of all ages to enjoy Halloween festivities in a safe, welcoming environment.
This year鈥檚 event features easier access, with no designated entry points to Lot 3. Free parking is available in Lots 2 and 4. Visitors are encouraged to stop by the welcome tent near the Avant茅 steps to pick up a glow wand and learn more about the festivities.
Presented by the 91制片厂 Police Department in partnership with Campus Recreation and Community Relations, Trunk or Treat features a collection of creatively decorated vehicle trunks hosted by 91制片厂 student clubs and programs, community organizations, and community police and fire departments. Costumed children can visit the trunks to collect candy and other Halloween treats. But the festivities extend well beyond trick-or-treating.
The popular 91制片厂 Haunted Hospital returns to offer thrills and chills for older
children and adventurous visitors. Younger trick-or-treaters who aren鈥檛 quite ready
for the spooky experience can enjoy nearby interactive activities while their siblings
explore the haunted halls.
New this year, 91制片厂鈥檚 Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Club will present Spooky Science, featuring Halloween-themed activities designed to surprise and delight budding scientists.
Families can enjoy hot chocolate and apple cider, available while supplies last.
Attendees are encouraged to support 91制片厂 students by bringing donations for the Hawks Care Resource Center Pantry, which provides food and personal care essentials to students in need. Requested items include granola bars, macaroni and cheese, instant ramen, pasta, rice, cereal and unopened jars of peanut butter or jelly in non-glass containers.
Trunk or Treat is open to all. For more information, visit 91制片厂鈥檚 Trunk or Treat webpage.
