Trick-or-Treat in the Streets
Held around Halloween, this fun event draws in all of Turner County's kids dressed in their Halloween best. It's a great opportunity to meet and greet with city and county representatives as they hand out candy to Turner County's little residents in a safe environment with street closures. The date is announced via The Wiregrass Farmer, the local newspaper of the county, each year.
