Spooky fun in New Rockford this Halloween

Once again, New Rockford will be home to all kinds of spooky fun this Halloween night!

While enjoying this Halloween evening, be sure to take your trick-or-treaters downtown, where the New Rockford Lions Club is sponsoring a Trunk or Treat event.

On Halloween night, businesses, organizations and families are invited to decorate their trunks and give out treats at the gazebo frontage road from 4:30 - 6 p.m. The annual event allows kids of all ages to safely go trick-or-treating.

Anyone interested in handing out candy is encouraged to contact Jodi Hirchert at (701) 302-0070 or Kristi Swenson at (701) 302-0155.

Also downtown on Halloween night, a number of businesses will have plenty of goodies for trick-or-treaters to enjoy.

But that’s not all that’s on tap this Halloween night. The Eddy-New Rockford Library will again be offering green screen photos from 5-7 p.m. and everyone is welcome - from ghosts and ghouls to superheroes and fairy princesses.

Using an app called Blue Screen It, anyone and everyone can pose in front of an exciting and spook-tacular backdrop, just like actors and models do in Hollywood!

Choose from one of several different backgrounds, strike a pose at the green screen, and then watch as your photo transforms into a great Halloween treat delivered right to your email.

There’s all kinds of fun for the whole family this Halloween, but be careful of the candy-craving monsters that are sure to be lurking all through the town.

Happy Halloween!
