Fright Night Was Frightfully Good!

We meant to get this Fright Night recap in before Halloween, but with that unexpected snow storm, we had to push back posting in favor of the timely information. But here is a final update and thank you from the Fright Night Planning Committee!

Lower Macungie Library's Fright Night was a Halloween Dream!

“Can’t wait ‘til next year!”  This was the thought expressed by many of the people who attended LML’s fundraiser at the Brookside Country Club last week.  Close to one hundred guests and ghouls partied to spooky music and great food.

The costume judging was hilarious due to Charles J. Adams III, Master of Ceremonies, who had the costume wearers strut their stuff, heckling them a bit before announcing the winners.  The other judges were Tom Kociuba (who was also the DJ), and Deanna Zosky.  The “Persnickety Pumpkin” Costume Award Winners were:

SCARIEST – “The Joker” – Gregg Samuels

BEST COUPLE – “Pirate & His Booty” – Scott
& Monika Heydt

FUNNIEST – “Crazy Cat Lady” – Kathee Rhode

MOST ORIGINAL – “Giorgio Tsoukalos” – Mary Ann Tettemer

BEST OVERALL – “Witch” – Catherine Gallagher

SEXIEST – “Catwoman” – Louise Moyer

The Silent Auction featured about 30 items such as Hot Air Balloon Rides, Allegiant Airlines round trip tickets to Florida, a Byers’ Choice collectible figurine, a Keurig coffee maker with boxes of K-cups, jewelry, wine and chocolate baskets, and many more!

The Library’s Friends group sponsored the event.  The great turnout, interesting items from generous donors for the Silent Auction, and support from the community of friends and patrons made this a successful fundraising effort.  The net amount raised for the Library’s Technology Fund was $2500.

Don’t miss the party next year—it’s bound to be even better! Hope you had a Happy Halloween!
