Monster Mash Appreciations
 
Did you make it out to the Monster Mash? Hopefully you were there to enjoy the fun carnival games, face-painting, slide, craft activities, food, and cakewalk. It was a fun, happy night of music, costumes, dancing, and family fun, made possible by Margo Shimy, Stephanie Schieder, Donalyn Harris and the legion of volunteers who offered their time and efforts working at this event for our Roadrunner families. 

Thanks also go out to every family who donated baked goods for the Cake Walk. Walnut Grove is so fortunate to have so many volunteers who come out to ensure that the Roadrunners have fun memories to connect with their time here as students.  Thank you to all of you for making the Monster Mash a special night for all!
