Thank you so much to the many families who were able to participate in our Halloween celebrations on Tuesday. We appreciate you taking the time to enjoy this day with all of us.
Trunk or Treat was also a wonderful family event, and a tremendous success. It was enjoyable to see so many families attend. We appreciate all of our local businesses, school organizations and community members who sponsored a trunk and supported our parade through town.
