Trunk or Treat Halloween Event Awards Prizes
to Decorated Cars and Costumed Kids

Banner Elk, NC   November 3, 2008 – The ghouls and goblins drove to Banner Elk’s Halloween party in style.  Twenty four entries in the annual Trunk or Treat contest added to the atmosphere of scary fun with cars, trucks, and even a motorcycle tricked out in frightful décor. Candy for the hundreds of trick or treaters flowed from car trunks, making even the scariest vehicle an irresistible stop. The winning entry was a Graveyard scene by staff members of the Holston Camp, with second place honors to A&W Mountain Rentals’ Trick or Treat Mall.  Third prize went to Bella’s Restaurant for their Harvest scene.
