Since Halloween fell on Saturday this year, we decided to celebrate it all weekend with our campers.
Friday night we started out with a bonfire and s'mores. We thank all the people who camped with us and came down to the bonfire to visit and enjoy the s'mores.
Saturday afternoon we had a Dog Costume Contest which was a blast. The dogs were very good natured about wearing their costumes and the owners loved showing them off!
The winner of the costume contest was Taffy the Westie clown. Second place went to Dakota the Husky witch. Third place was a tie between Lucy the Yorkie Poo devil and Adam the Dachsund cowboy.
Saturday evening started off with a hayride down to the lower pavilion. Our handyman Dave drove the tractor even though he had recently suffered a bullet through the head. We thank him for pulling it together and giving all the campers a real treat.
Teresa did a fantastic job of decorating the office and the lower pavilion. She also took care of the games for the little spooks Saturday night and did a terrific job helping to make it all happen. In the top picture you will see her watching over a couple of campers who are roasting hot dogs over the bonfire. Thankfully she did not have a thirst for blood that night so none of the campers went home a pint light.
Sunday we had a pancake, sausage and scrambled egg brunch prepared by Teresa who is a marvelous cook. Thanks to all the campers who came to eat and share their ideas on how we could make our campground better.
Thank you to Kyle too for all the support and freedom he gave us to be able to share this weekend with a lot of wonderful people.
This weekend has inspired us to find different things that campers would enjoy doing with their families.
In the future we are planning to do something special one weekend every month so please check back often to see what's happening at Perryville Campground!
PCG first Halloween Bash was great!! We had so much fun and the grandkids just would not stop.
ReplyDeleteThey especially liked the donut eating contest and the scavenger hunt. One even commented on: you never knew when you walked somewhere....if someone was going to SPOOK YOU! She said it was sooooo much better than running around town.
We hope they will do this again next year. We are planning on it and looking forward to it.
Debbie, Dave and Teresa did a great job.
Thanks to Dave and Teresa for the concern over my hubby even though they were all busy.
You should be extremely proud of yourselves for the job you did.
