Halloween Trunk-or-Treat at The Mall

Share

Books, Buckets of Candy, and Community Spirit

Families enjoyed Borrego Springs’ Trunk or Treat with decorated trunks, music, face painting, free books, and community volunteers keeping candy supplies full.



Borrego Springs families gathered at The Mall on October 31 from 5–7 PM for a fun and safe Halloween celebration. The annual Trunk or Treat event filled the parking area with decorated cars, candy stations, photo booths, and Halloween music under the evening sky.


Kids arrived in costume to collect treats from each trunk and received free books from BASIC and the San Diego County Library. Face painting by the Borrego Art Institute added to the fun, and volunteers circulated with buckets to keep each trunk’s candy supply stocked throughout the night.


Local groups such as the Anza-Borrego Foundation, San Diego County Fire, and Prajna Yoga & Wellness joined the festivities, creating a lively, family-friendly evening.

Sponsored by The Mall and community partners, Trunk or Treat once again showcased Borrego Springs’ creative spirit and strong sense of togetherness.
