Trunk or Treat and Halloween Party


Saturday, October 30th, the mummies were unleashed at ATA West Chester. ATA's Egyptian inspired theme was complimented by our Mummy Demo Team. Kids were treated to a Trunk or Treat in the parking lot and a hayride around the parking lot and then were admitted into the spooky mummies' tomb. Once inside the children participated in various games, activities, and a fantastic glow in the dark martial arts demonstration.


Special thanks goes out to Ms. Gladson, Ms. Curry, Mrs. Mastnjak, and Mr. Grosse for set up and clean up. Thanks also to Mr. Ashby, Mr. Grosse, Mr. Zavaleta, and Ms. Rickert for being our mummified demo team. Thanks to all of the parents that set up for trunk or treat. Also, a special thanks to Mr. Ciarlello for the hayrides. Everyone had a blast and we look forward all the craziness over again next year!
