Pivotal Point Thrift Shoppe to host Trunk-or-Treat
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- A local non-profit is highlighting its thrift store while providing a fun event for kids in the St. Joseph community.
From 4 to 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 29, the Pivotal PointThrift Shoppe in St. Joseph will host a Trunk-or-Treat event.
The event will be indoors and will feature several tables where kids can retrieve candy and other treats while trying out their Halloween costumes.
Store manager Angel Hovey said this is a great way to have a safe family event, regardless of the weather, while also discovering the Thrift Shoppe and all it has to offer.
"It will be in store, so the kids will be able to walk around and have a great time," Hovey said. "In addition to tables that will contain a variety of treats, we will also have a chocolate milk bar, and everybody's going to be dressed up in costume."
Pivotal Point Director Rick Lipira said, in addition to providing a fun outlet for kids and families, highlighting the Thrift Shoppe is important because it provides great deals to families, has a wide range of low-cost items and is the main fundraiser for all of Pivotal Point's services to the homeless community.
"We want to make sure people are aware of this ministry and of the overall work of Pivotal Point while they are having fun for Halloween," Lipira said.
