Conroe Courier October 12, 2023

In about two weeks, the streets of Montgomery County will be filled with ghouls and goblins in search of candy from their neighbors. While they will not have to travel far, some events will draw crowds with costume contests, games, and of course, candy. 

Here are several events planned around the county between the weekends of Oct. 20 to Oct. 27:

Trunk or Treat events 

Several county areas will be hosting “Trunk or Treat” events, where people decorate their vehicles and give out candy outside of their trunk. 

For example, First Methodist Conroe is hosting a “Trunk or Treat” event on Oct. 28. The church off of Texas 105 will have a contest for the best decorative trunk, hot dogs, face-painting, balloon artists and other games, according to the church’s website.
