Area children and their families are invited to trick-or-treat in Northwest Missouri State University residence halls from 6 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 29.

Families may obtain a map and list of participating residential rooms by visiting The Station conference center, located adjacent to the high-rise residence halls on Northwest Drive, or Hudson-Perrin residence halls, located just north of the main entrance to campus on Fourth Street.

The event is a long-standing tradition, sponsored by Northwest’s Residence Hall Association.

Northwest students who are interested in participating must sign up at their residence hall’s front desk. Students are encouraged to decorate their doors and rooms and dress in costumes. Students must provide their own candy.
