Project Green- Halloween Event

Has it been a life long dream of yours to dress up in scary costumes and scare little kids?

GMA can help you achieve that dream…. We are going with Project Green to Willow Elementary to participate in their Halloween Trick-Or-Treat Event.

“The time for the event is 12:30-2:30. We will be meeting at the Lear Center at 12:30 for those who need transportation. For those who are driving themselves they need to be at Willow Elementary by 1pm to setup their table. We recommend you dress costume to impress the children because at the end of the event, we will ask children to vote for their favorite character!”
