The annual "Trick of Trunk" Halloween decorating contest returns to Manchester Township High School on Friday. 

Sponsored by the township's Municipal Alliance and Department of Recreation, the 7 p.m. event invites participants to decorate the trunks of their vehicles. A $50 cash prize will be awarded for the best trunk, according to organizers. 

Residents can also catch a hayride from the MTHS main entrance to the parking lot where the contest will be held. Entry to the event is $2.
