Superheros and Pumpkins
It was a big year for pirates, superheros and pumpkins at this year's (now maybe annual) Halloween portraits. We raised over $300 plus an arm-full of non-perishable food items for the Rock County Emergency Food Shelf. It's great to see so many children on Main Street for the annual event that is organized by the Chamber. The studio staff comment about the event was "crazy!" We went through $40 worth of candy in a little over an hour and photographed over 60 quite scary trick or treaters. Click here to view the Gallery.
Dressing up for Halloween is great fun but I have trouble with the "darker" side of the holiday. That's one of the reasons I started doing this event. I wanted good to come out of what some consider a celebration of evil. We can have fun and help out the local food shelf at the same time.
One of the reasons I started doing this event is I dislike the "darker" side of the holiday.
