October 29: Literacy Celebration!
This year, our youth and a bunch of our creative adults dressed as characters from their favorite books for our annual Literacy Day Celebration. We had a party, with wonderful food and treats, and then, before it got dark, we did a neighborhood parade to show off our costumes. Several parents joins us, as did our well-dressed staff members.
After the parade, the bravest among us went down to the Activity Room, where courageous teens and adults had built a "haunted house". Scary sounds, fog, and VERY scary decorations, plus an ample assortment of ghouls meant there was a LOT of screaming. For a while, no one could find Ms. August... until we figured out that the "witch" looked sort of familiar! Here are some pictures. Hopefully, you won't be too scared!
