Get your costumes ready! 👻 One of the Roaring Fork Valley’s favorite family Halloween traditions is returning this October, and everyone is invited.
Ascendigo Autism Services is excited to host our 7th Annual Trunk or Treat—a festive, family-friendly celebration designed to make Halloween fun, welcoming, and accessible for children and families of all abilities.
Each year, Trunk or Treat brings hundreds of children, families, volunteers, and community members together for an afternoon filled with trick-or-treating, games, crafts, creativity, and plenty of Halloween spirit. It’s more than a Halloween event—it’s an opportunity for our community to come together, make connections, and celebrate what makes each of us unique.
👻 A Halloween Celebration Where Everyone Belongs
For many children, especially those with sensory sensitivities, traditional Halloween activities can feel overwhelming. Trunk or Treat offers a safe, inclusive, and sensory-considerate environment where kids can participate at their own pace and enjoy the magic of Halloween in a way that works for them.
Families can look forward to:
🎃 Decorated trunks and trick-or-treating
🍬 Plenty of Halloween treats and festive surprises
🎨 Games, crafts, and family-friendly activities
🧡 Sensory-friendly experiences designed with a range of needs in mind
🤝 Opportunities to connect with other families and members of the community
👻 And, of course, lots of costumes and Halloween fun!
Whether your little one arrives as a superhero, princess, favorite character, spooky creature—or simply themselves—we can’t wait to celebrate with you.
🧡 Bring the Whole Family!
Trunk or Treat is a chance to slow down, have some fun, and enjoy a Halloween celebration where every child can feel welcome, included, and celebrated.
And if you’re still looking for the perfect costume or decorations for your trunk, make arc Thrift your Halloween headquarters! From costumes and accessories to spooky décor and creative finds, shopping at arc Thrift is a fun way to get ready for Halloween while supporting a local nonprofit organization.
We’re proud to bring families and community members together year after year for this beloved Ascendigo tradition. And we couldn’t do it without the local businesses, volunteers, and community partners who help make the event possible.
So mark your calendar, start planning those costumes and decorated trunks, and get ready for a spooktacular afternoon with us!
