On Sat., Oct. 29, the Junior Woman’s Club of Verona plans to host Boo Fest, a costume dance party for children.  The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. at H.B. Whitehorne Middle School Gym.  Prizes will be awarded to the Best Costume and the Best Family Costume.

Admission for the event is $5 per person (with a $20 maximum per family.)  Children under age 1 are free.  Admission includes breakfast, live music at 9:30 a.m., a costume contest, and a pumpkin craft.  Mini photo sessions will be available at an additional cost.

All proceeds will benefit the mission of the Junior Woman’s Club of Verona.  The Juniors thank Hot Bagels-N-More, Preschool of Rock and Little Nest Photography for supporting the event.
