Trunk or Treat Events in October

Owlbert couldn't wait until Halloween to see his friends… so he surprised them with the next best thing - Trunk Or Treats at both Robert Hunter School and Whitehouse School! 

Owlbert shared his Trunk full of Coping Strategies disguised as fun activities!  Each trick or treater got to take home pinwheels and bubbles for breathwork, jump rope for exercise and crayons and coloring sheets with important prevention messages, mixed in with candy of course! Parents received a short guide on how to use these goodies as coping strategies. 

Owlbert also enjoyed the dance party with his friends at Whitehouse School and got to show off his Thriller dance moves while playing freeze dance! Owlbert had tons of fun catching up with friends and meeting new ones, he already can’t wait for next year! Thank you so much to Robert Hunter School and Whitehouse School for being great partners in prevention!
