Trunk or Treat & Spooktacular Costume Contest

Come spooky. Come silly. Just come! Families will love our safe, fun and FREE trick-or-treating event which showcases local businesses and organizations. Dress in costume and share in the festivities the week before Halloween. Event will be held in the Briess Parking Lot across from the library.
Note: In case of inclement weather, the Trunk or Treat event will be cancelled.
While having fun Trunk or Treating, head over to the Teen Hangout on MPL's first floor between 5:30-6:45PM on to sign up for the 2026 Spooktacular Costume Contest. We've got three categories for you to register in:
- Youth: for kids aged 0-11

The MPL team will review the photos and choose 5 finalists from each category. We'll be looking for costumes that showcase creativity, originality, authenticity, and strong presentation.
Finalists will be posted on MPL's Facebook on Wednesday, October 21. A prize will be awarded to the photo with the most likes in each category!
Ghosts and goblins of all ages are welcome! Family-friendly costumes are appreciated. Winners will be announced on Tuesday, October 27.
