Long before there was Beetlejuice, Michael Myers – and even me, there was Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin.
Even though our team of writers at work span all ages, we all know the Peanuts Gang and the Great Pumpkin. So that was our mission today: Dress like characters in that seasonal special.
Woodstock, Peppermint Patty, Marcy, Snoopy's Dad, Lucy, and Charlie Brown. Front row: Linus, Snoopy, me, and Rerun.
Pretty much every team in our marketing department dressed up today so that was fun.
Our afternoon featured a different type of entertainment. As I mentioned earlier in the week, our team had two volunteer projects on our calendars this week. Today was going to the Wisconsin Veterans Home in King (outside nearby Waupaca) to help them with their Halloween party this afternoon. Mainly, BINGO.
They also had a lot of pumpkins on display. We could vote on our favorite. Here's a few ideas for you next year! (Of course, I'm partial to the ice cream ones.)
Pretty cool, eh?
It was also cool that our friend Dar's dad is a resident at the veterans' home, so I got to meet up with him – and may or may not have given him extra candy from my Halloween Bingo Bucket!
What a fun few hours of volunteering!
Now, since Jim is out of town/state, it's just me and Mr. SKOL Man awaiting trick-or-treaters. Two so far – with lots of candy to go!
Hope your Halloween (or Great Pumpkin) was worth waiting for! 🎃
