“Our Halloween event is our biggest and most successful fundraiser we host each year,” says Executive Director Charlie Few. “With this being our 25 year anniversary, we are excited to celebrate the milestones our organization has surpassed.”
Partygoers will enjoy light bites and cocktails provided by Tito’s Homemade Vodka while dancing the night away to beats by DJ Bill Berdeaux.
