SCARE FEST 2005

scary ghosts

Vendors & Local Services attending include:

Library Services & Vendor Fair

See SCARE FEST 2007 for the latest information!

Quite a turn out today! Thanks to all who attended and assisted. Hundreds of students, faculty, and staff visited today including an angel, the purple witch twins, Thomas the Tank Engine, Amelia Earhart, a referee, a press photographer, a viking, a flapper, a pirate, and someone who was walked all over (but seemed to WELCOME it).  I think I even saw Mrs Pacman about the library maze of vendors gobbling dots among many other fabulous costumes. The midday ramblers delighted listeners with tales of horror and gore, from the gripping to the sublime.
