Wisconsin School Holds Halloween Fundraiser

The Winneconne High School held their Winneconne Halloween Bash 2007 fundraiser on Sunday, October 21st. More than 300 children attended the spooky event at the Winnecone, Wisconsin school. Funds raised benefited the American Cancer Society. The event was to promote safe trick or treating and was organized by the high school student council.

One popular feature was the haunted science labratory. It was one of the newest attractions at the event.

Barb Sauer, a science teacher at Winneconne High School, said she developed the ideas for the haunted lab through the Internet while looking for lesson plans for her class. Sauer found a lot of haunted physics lab ideas there. “We want to make science fun and intriguing,” she said. “There really isn’t anything there that will scare kids.”

The Halloween-themed event had 20 trick-or-treat stations. It also had 14 game stations for various age groups. There was a glow-in-the-dark hallway and also a haunted hayride.
