A Green Halloween in IH

Posted by Kathleen Cragun 1 Comment »

Halloween is a big deal for Issaquah Highlands. There were events and fun for everyone. I didn’t go to the Boo Bash Teen Dance. I did’nt think they would let me in (I’m a little over the age limit)! I heard the sounds of kids having fun. I didn’t go to the Haunted House either (too scary)! But, I heard the blood curdling shreeks and screams, so I know they had a GOOD time.

What I did do was: Watch the delight of kids as they streaked throught the maze AND

Charity and Levi don’t know they are about to be attacked by a giant spider!

Fun stripes are sprayed into willing kids hair by Jill Jensen of SportClips Salon.

Pony rides, of course, for those too young to enjoy being scared out of their wits!

A Pumpkin Carving Contest…….and Renee announces the winners.

Happy Halloween…………………………………..IH did it a little early.
