Description

Get into the Halloween spirit by flexing your creativity and decorating a mini skeleton that will be displayed for everyone to see in the library. Stop in anytime during this week, October 9-14 to pick up your registration packet and tiny skeleton, then drop off your decorated skeleton the following week. Winners will be announced on October 24 and all skeletons will be on display for public view all week. A panel of judges will select one winner from each age category; young kids (ages 7 and under), tweens (ages 8-12), teens (ages 13-17), and adults (ages 18 and up). Skeletons will be judged based on their artistic quality, creativity, and ingenuity.
