After much work and anticipation, your photos from the amazing Trunk-R-Treat event last Saturday are available for FREE download.  We’re still working on some of them (technical difficulties, ya know), so please bear with us.

Two ways to get them:

1. Visit our search page (CLICK HERE), enter your ID number that you got at the event, and download your photo(s).  If you don’t find them, try just browsing around the photo gallery.
2. Come into the church office (during normal business hours) and we’ll print them for you (yes, FREE)

Thanks again to all who participated in and volunteered for this wonderful community event!  See you next year!

Costumed little ones (and not so little ones) came from all over Dent County and the surrounding area on Saturday for Salem UMC’s 4th annual Trunk-R-Treat event. The event was created to provide our mostly-rural population a safe and convenient was to place for families to enjoy Halloween activities. More than 3,000 of our friends and neighbors enjoyed a parking lot full of decorated cars, free food and photos, and lots of candy.

The organizers would like to thank the community for supporting the event with their prayers and donations and especially the hard work of the event volunteers.

Photos taken at the event may be downloaded free of charge from the Salem UMC website, www.SalemMoUmc.com or picked up at the church office within the week.

The famous Salem UMC Trunk-R-Treat 2010 event  is coming fast!  This event is an amazing outreach and service to the Salem community.  It brings THOUSANDS of folks to our doorstep (seriously!).  If you would like to participate or find out about this far-reaching community ministry, there will be a Trunk or Treat meeting Wednesday August 25th at 6:30pm in the church library.

Lots of folks are needed to pull off an event of this scale.  There are many different ways to help:

• Candy & donation helpers (in-costume, probably at WalMart)
• Hospitality (help folks get signed-in and pointed in the right direction)
• Parking and traffic flow hosts (keeping things flowing and safe)
• Behind-the-scenes help
• Car hosts (decorate your car and hand out treats!!!)

We’ll see you there!
