Happy Halloween!!!

Bring the whole family down for a fun Halloween filled day at the Lofte! Trunk-or-Treat is like Trick-or-Treat except rather than going door-to-door, participants can decorate the trunks of their cars and hand out candy, goodies, prizes, and surprises - and maybe even a few tricks!

Want to Trick-or-Treat?
The entry fee is $5 per child, or $10 per family. While you're here you can also swing by our concession stand where we will be selling hot dogs, popcorn, and drinks. Take your snacks and relax in our theatre where we'll be showing Casper the Friendly Ghost cartoons! And, while you trunk-or-treat, you can vote for who you thought had the most well decorated trunk! And make sure you come in costume - this is Trick-or-Treat after all!

Want to decorate your trunk?
Participants will be able to vote for who they thought had the best trunk and prizes will be given out for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place! There is no entry fee for trunks, just decorate as best you can! Please pre-register your trunk by sending an email to sponsor@lofte.org, and say "I want to compete at Trunk-or-Treat!"

Want to help out?
We'll be hosting a candy drive through Noises Off! Bring a bag of candy or Halloween themed goodies (non-consumable please) and drop it off at the box office before the show and you'll get a free popcorn!

We are also looking for volunteers for the event. If you're interested in volunteering send an email to sponsor@lofte.org.

We can't wait to see you for a spooky good time!

NATIONAL BLOOD CRISIS!
Worst Blood Shortage in Over a Decade!

The American Red Cross is facing a national blood crisis – its worst blood shortage in over a decade, posing a concerning risk to patient care. Doctors have been forced to make difficult decisions about who receives blood transfusions and who will need to wait until more products become available. Blood and platelet donations are critically needed to help prevent further delays in vital medical treatments. Please schedule your blood donation today.
