This year the Second Annual Halloween Costume Contest was also a fundraiser for the Welles Park Play Lot renovation project. Our goal was 100 kids, and at a $10 donation per contestant, we raised over $1000. A special thanks to the Aufegger family of Salamander shoe store for letting us use their space!
As you'll see from the images, there were no cranky or fussy children...we only got smiles! Must've been the candy...
