On Sunday, Oct. 27, the Connect Program along with the National Honors Society (NHS) and Students Against Destructive Discussions (SADD) hosted the annual Fall Festival. The event included games, festivities and a haunted house set up in the WHS field house. “The biggest difference this year compared to others is, we had the support of SADD who gave us the big bouncy house we had at the event,” senior Connect member Kai Drayton said. “We also had NHS members come and help out with activities, as well as a series of food trucks. The only issue which was annoying is some [kids] thought they were too cool to be scared.”
