Infinity Athletics wants businesses to help with third annual Trunk or Treat

Infinity Athletics is looking for Moose Jaw businesses to join them for their third annual Trunk or Treat event, which will be held in their parking lot at 34 Highland Road on Oct. 30 from 2 to 4 p.m.

“So, local businesses come in, they decorate their trucks and they have candy for all the kids,” explained Katie Smith, co-owner of the business with her sister Melissa Marzolf. “Families can come for a couple of different time slots … and they can go trick-or-treating from truck to truck.”

The fee to participate is $5 for Infinity Athletics members and $10 for non-members.

Smith said the event is a way for families and kids to celebrate Halloween in a safe, friendly atmosphere. It’s also a community event and helps raise the profile of local businesses.

“Right now, we have 10 to 12 businesses signed up,” she added, “and we’re looking for a few more this year.”

Last year, Trunk or Treat drew 150 kids out to the Infinity Athletics (IA) parking lot. Smith said they’re hoping to grow that number for their third edition.

There will also be some indoor family activities to help keep all the little ghosts and ghouls entertained.

IA has a variety of program offerings for their members, including competitive cheerleading and dance, recreational tumbling, day camps, summer camps, and their ninja program — a combination of gymnastics and martial arts that emphasizes movement skills.

Perhaps their busiest times are during weekend birthday parties. They have six birthday slots a weekend, and they’re always full.

“We can do ninja birthdays, we do slime birthdays, glow party birthdays, tumbling, cheer — all the fun stuff. Really any kind of birthday party.”

Smith and her sister started IA seven years ago in Alliance Church. They had about 40 athletes at first and are now sitting at just under 300. They also spent two years at Zion United on Main Street before moving to their new location, a huge space all to themselves.

“We’re growing, which is awesome,” Smith said. “We’re excited to have this space to grow even more.”
