FIFTEEN YEARS AGO: GRUESOME, GHOSTLY AND JUST PLAIN SILLY - Grantsville Seniors Celebrate Halloween

(10/31/2020)
2005 - Friday was Halloween dress-up day at the Calhoun County Committee on Aging's Senior Center in Grantsville.

The day was filled with fun and laughter as costumes worn by "kids at heart" were judged in several categories.

The Center also celebrated October birthdays, and drew the winner of the "Tilted 9 Patch" quilt, raffled by the CCCOA and Grantsville Lions Club.
