The Halloween parade was great. The town folks turned out with their bags of candy and the children trooped down the hill to collect. A lot of cute costumes this year. The Pumpkin Decorating was awesome. The students come up with some great ideas. This year’s winners were: First Place - a black widow spider done by Olivia Doshas, River McCarthy, Nadia Lau-Vargas, Taylor Witzke and Everett Holtsman. Second Place was the pig zombie done by Jude Krick, Julian Arias, Cole Schlicht and Malia Olivo. Third Place was popcorn done by Annabel Lee, Gracie Anderson and Gibran Valladares.
