Since 2020, The Colman Vault has hosted Marionville’s annual Trunk or Treat—an event that has quickly become an anticipated fall traditions. What began as a fun, safe place for families to enjoy Halloween festivities has grown into a cornerstone fundraiser supporting the renovation of three additional historic buildings neighboring the venue.

Held every year on the last Sunday of October, the celebration brings together families, local organizations, and visitors for an afternoon filled with community energy. Guests enjoy trunk‑or‑treating, a classic car show, costume contests, cake walks, raffles, vendors, and a variety of food trucks. The event continues to expand each year, driven by the dedication of residents and partners who believe in Marionville’s potential.

The Trunk or Treat offers more than seasonal fun—it showcases the momentum behind Marionville’s revitalization. The growing attendance, increased vendor participation, and ongoing restoration efforts signal a community investing in its future. It’s a glimpse of the vibrancy and opportunity that make Marionville an inviting place to start, grow, or relocate a business.
