"It was a cold and windy night." That's how a lot of scary stories begin. But in Ada on Monday night there were lots of ghouls and goblins seen about the downtown on a "pleasant and beautiful night."
The good weather brought out a throng of Halloweeners, who registered in the parking lot behind the city building, marched to the depot, and heard the results of the costume contest.
There were 187 contest participants, about 350 to 400 people (and two dogs) altogether at the event.
Hillary was spotted in the crowd; The Donald was nowhere to be seen.
Kiwanis Club organizes and sponsors the event for the community. Fifty trophies were handed out for the most imaginative costume creations.
The Ada High School Band and Flag Corps (who, by-the-way, recently qualified for state competition) and Ada Police cruiser led the parade to the depot. The 2016 Kiwanis Club Halloween parade: a fun time for many on a pleasant evening.
