Hagerstown, MD – Families in Washington County are invited to enjoy a safe and festive evening as the Washington County Sheriff’s Office hosts its annual Trunk or Treat on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Hagerstown Community College’s ARCC.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the free community event will feature plenty of Halloween fun, including a coloring contest, a costume contest, and candy giveaways. Children will have the opportunity to trick-or-treat from decorated vehicles in a family-friendly environment.
The event is being organized in partnership with Hagerstown Community College Campus Police and the Washington County Parks & Recreation Department, which are working together to create an evening that is more fun than frightening.
