πŸŽƒπŸ‘» THE LIGHTHOUSE GOT SPOOKY… AND A LITTLE SILLY!

Our Lighthouse family brought the costumes, creativity, and plenty of laughs for a Halloween celebration to remember! 🧑

OUR STUDENTS STOLE THE SHOW!

πŸ₯‡ Michelle brought Operation to life – complete with sound effects! πŸ˜‚
πŸ₯ˆ Richard sailed in as a French pirate, rocking a costume made in France! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ
πŸ₯‰ Gina ruled as the Mother of Dragons from Game of Thrones! πŸ‰

AND OUR STAFF JOINED THE FUN!

πŸ† Elena dazzled as a Roaring Twenties flapper, winning Best Costume!
πŸ˜‚ Arturo wrangled the Funniest award as a dastardly cowboy!
πŸ’• Lori charmed everyone as Mother Gothel from Tangled, winning Cutest Costume!

🍽️ Our menu was also lively: Creepy broccoli casserole, stinking salad, rotten banana split sundaes – and a dance party to top it all off! πŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί

❀️ Huge thanks to the California Council of the Blind, San Bernardino Chapter, and the Lighthouse for the cash prizes, Stater Bros. for the gift cards, and Stater Bros. Charities for judging!
