Trunk or Treat is a community event where participants gather at the Adams County Fairgrounds, to celebrate Halloween in a safe and organized environment. Instead of traditional door-to-door trick-or-treating, children go from car to car, collecting candy from the decorated trunks of participating vehicles. Each vehicle’s trunk is creatively decorated with various themes, ranging from spooky and fun to whimsical and family-friendly. Volunteers, often parents, local businesses, or community groups, distribute candy or small treats from their trunks. The event has 35 trunks, and approximately 800 people come through the line. 

The event will begin at 1:00pm and will conclude at 3:00pm, set up will be as early as 11:00AM.
We are asking your business, agency, or organization to participate in decorating a trunk!

Up North Brewing Company is happy to present our first annual HAUNTED FOREST on our brand new Ale Trail.
Walking just under half a mile through a haunted forest along the Ale Trail, you will find yourself surrounded by towering trees draped in mist and flickering lanterns casting eerie shadows. Each bend reveals a new fright—ghostly figures lurking between branches, cackling witches stirring cauldrons, and glowing eyes watching from the dark. The trail weaves past pop-up haunted stations tucked into the woods, each offering spooky seasonal shots and chilling tales. The mix of creepy ambiance and Halloween-themed sips will make the forest feel like a living, breathing nightmare—in the best possible way.
Entrance fee: Adult 21+ $10, includes beer. below 21 $5 includes soda or hot chocolate.
