Monster Bash Haunted Houses
The Haunted Houses that the organization runs every October is staffed by students of Fillmore Central Public Schools, along with their parents and other local volunteers. The Haunted House charges admission and also sells basic concessions and t-shirts for income. That income is then used to help offset the expenses for the students' biennial band & choir trips, support the Fillmore Central Art and Theater Departments, and for Haunted House updates.
