Spooktacular Of 2010
APAC's annual Spooktacular was held on October 30, 2010. This is our annual picnic in the neighborhood that raises funds for beautifying and maintaining our enclave in association with crime prevention and awareness. Free food, music, auctions, and door prizes are handed out to raffle ticket holders of this event. Guest speakers included councilperson Sheffie Kadane, Allen Vaught, Kenneth Sheets, and wife of Bill White the gubernatorial candidate.
A special flyover was conducted by the police department's "AIR 1" .
Frida Kahlo and some super heroes made a special appearance also.
Other visitors travelled far & wide for the fine cuisine and Flo was out peddling that insurance.
The bounce house kept kids busy & councilman Sheffie Kadane with Sr. Corp. Ron Carpenter visited. Even Fido could get groomed.
