VGCA Vice President Amy Nuttall organized a Halloween Prepping Party on Saturday, Oct 19th. We had a good turnout and the kids (and parents) enjoyed the creepy crawly formaldehyde apple cider, Halloween donuts, Ghost Poofs, and may other treats. They were able to color a Halloween Trick-or-Treat bag and gather some treats for it. They also decorated pumpkins to take home. The Monster Mash and some other Halloween themed music was played by DJ Connor and DJ Ben.
