The Huletts Halloween parade was held over this past Columbus Day weekend. While these pictures are a few weeks old, I wanted to post them anyway.
The children gathered and paraded in a wide variety of very colorful and creative costumes and free ice cream was provided at the Casino. A great time was had by all and the “Trick or Treat” offerings throughout the community were not only superb but were graciously received by the children also.
Would you believe that Whiteface had its first snowfall this past weekend? The beginning of the skiing and riding season isn’t that far off, it’s slated for Friday, Nov. 25. So tune up the skis and boards!!

The Halloween party will happen on Saturday night, beginning around 10:00 pm. Wear your best costume. 😉
