string of events

It seems there's no time like Fall semester for events. With all the holidays, MCC has events one right after the other. Yet, we still manage to squeeze things like classes and registration around our reveling. All the activity translates to tons of fun for the season, and the planning and preperation are taking off now. I, for one, am getting excited!

The slew of events begins the end of this month with Halloween festivities. Look for us next Friday, 10/23, at the El Capitan School October Fest and snag a treat. Susie the Witch will show you how to throw down the broomstick and sweep you up in a fun frenzy with her spookish song. Then the following week brings free fall fare (popcorn, candy, cookies, cider, etc.) for all on campus, crowned by the Masada Charter School trunk-or-treat on Saturday, 10/31. We'll have a terrificly terrifying trunk with goulish goodies for the costumed kiddies. Be sure to stop in at the college and Masada for both. We've got the treats covered, so it's up to you to have a trick up your sleeve (or under your witch or warlock hat).

Hope to see you as we kick off the season. This is only the beginning - more to come! (Check back for updates on MCC happenings.)

turning, turning - the season is turning!

Well, the Oktoberfest was fun. We had some of the county government officials visit with us, and I think they enjoyed the event. An enormous thank you to Sam Zitting and his family for providing the venue and all the extra effort they put in to make the event a hit.

The Chicken Dance was a crowd pleaser, as always, as was the German sing along led by our Foundation Chapter President, Dr. Claude T. Cawley. One of our choir classes performed, as well, and the group sounded fantastic. It was freezy, though. Burrrrr!

Now that the weather seems to have officially turned autumn, I'm getting ready to break out the fall decorations and deck out the campus. I'm inspired by the lovely colors peeping through the green all around me - gold and red leaves are falling all around. I've already decorated my home, so now the itch is full boar.
