In Vail, it doesn’t matter if you are a kid or a kid-at-heart adult, Halloween is for everyone! The parties got started last night and continue tonight through Monday. There are plenty of opportunities to put on a costume, and head out for some fun.
Need a good last minute costume idea? A couple years ago my husband and I dressed up as contestants on The Price is Right. We had a group of us, each with name tags and message tee-shirts, and had a rousing audience participation everywhere we went. People singing the theme song and yelling "come on down!" all night long.
