Halloween Party
The Annual Children’s Halloween Party at the Gales Creek School will be held Saturday, Oct. 19 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Gales Creek School gym.
Billed as a party for Gales Creek-area families and Gales Creek School alumni, the event features games, crafts, and treats, and a special showing of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit starting at 7:45 p.m.
Volunteers have kept the event going for decades, and despite the closure of the Gales Creek Elementary School in 2011, the event persists thanks to volunteers like Deb Sims and many more.
The event is sponsored by the Gales Creek School PTO.
Chas Hundley is the editor of the Gales Creek Journal and sister news publications the Banks Post and the Salmonberry Magazine. He grew up in Gales Creek and has a cat.
