A Halloweenish Party!! John DJs, Gilberto assists.

Anything goes at our All Hallows' Eve-eve dance! Test out your latest getup, or trot out your rejects from yesteryear. We welcome the wacky, the weird, the subtle, the mixes and matches, the spooky and the cuddly (as well as the more conventional fare—after all, the Hancock troll should have a varied diet). And our dance program might have a few tricks and treats too! John Scales will be our DJ this week, assisted by Gilberto Rivera.
