The Forest Park High School Marching Bruin Band and Orchestra Boosters are
hosting our 2nd annual Band on the Run fun run Halloween morning from 8-9.
We will be asking for volunteers - and, since it's zombie themed, I would love
to have the students dress up as zombies along the course. 

Additionally we are, in conjunction with the PTSO and School Boosters hosting a
community festival with a craft fair, midway games, a cake walk, hay rides, trunk or
treat, and community partners on October 31, 2026 from 9 am to noon. We are
currently seeking vendors wishing to sell crafts, handmade items, etc., as well as
community partners looking to set up an information table and maybe hand out
some fun swag. Who doesn't love a freebie? If you know anyone who might be
interested in participating, please pass on these registration forms:

 COMMUNITY PARTNERS

If you know anyone with a trailer with sides that could be pulled by
the Kubota for hay rides please let me know. 

If you have any other great ideas I'm open to them. 

Be on the lookout for volunteer sign-up when we get closer.
