Each year the town has a parade and celebration of fall. This program was started eight years ago by Pres Nelson of the Temple Presidency. He has lived here for over 30 years and wanted to bring some life to this little town. Now people come from all over to this Booo-tiful Nauvoo.
Look at the work this fellow went through for this outfit.
One cannot have a parade about Halloween with the original Ghost-busters here.
This was the site missionaries entry in the parade. They took the Nauvoo Brass Band wagon and decorated it up and all the people in the wagon had costumes. They had fun.
Of course the highlight of the night is the pumpkin carving contest.
Some of these pumpkins were absolutely so well done.
The Church gave out free kettle corn, bags of candy for the children.
A movie 'Bedknobs and Broomsticks', a haunted house that was an 'outhouse',
They had a crazy band and of course a Flash Mob.
A good time was had by all.
The Church does so much here to help this town, so much.
Hope you enjoyed your Froot-Loops to go with this night!
