Halloween Party

The co-op's population included Indiana Jane and Indiana Jones, a chef, a princess, a ghost and a giant pickle on October 30th! After a fun day of co-op, the assorted characters assembled in the gym for Halloween treats, crafts, and a special game of Halloween Hullabaloo. A fun time was had by all.

A visit from the Science Bus!
