BACK IN THE DAY ... Ward
SRC Halloween Parties - For many years ,prior to the HS Haunted Hallways sponsored by the Interact Club, SRC held a yearly event for children at the St. Street School.  Donuts (supplied by Skaneateles Bakery) and cider were served to the many tricker-treaters & parents who stopped by during there rounds.  It included custom judging and prizes for numerous  categories.  These pictures represent just a sampling of the many St. Street Halloween parties,
