BLACKSBURG, Va., October 16, 2009 -- Panhellenic Council is sponsoring their annual Trick-Or-Treat night for local elementary school children, with fun and games for the whole family to enjoy.

The event takes place Friday, Oct. 30 from 4 to 7 p.m. in the Oak Lane Community. Greek volunteers from the Panhellenic Council, the governing body for Virginia Tech’s traditional majority general women’s fraternities and sororities, will participate in taking children from house to house trick-or-treating. This event is free and open to all community children and families.

“The Panhellenic Council is so excited for another Oak Lane Trick or Treat event. This program has always been a blast and we are hoping this year will be the best one yet!” said Greer Kelly, from Richmond, Va., a junior majoring in communication in the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences, and Panhellenic Council member.

In addition to trick-or-treating, activities will include bobbing for apples, face-painting, carving pumpkins, and many other fun activities for the entire family.
