Children of Atascosa County and their parents are invited to trick-or-treat in safety at Argent Court Assisted Living on Saturday, October 31, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Residents will be passing out candy throughout Argent Court.

Carnival at Showbarn

Come join the Girl Scouts at the Halloween Carnival on Saturday, October 31, from 3-7 p.m. at the Atascoa County Showbarn. This year’s new time gives everyone plenty of time to come have fun at the annual carnival and costume contest and then still go out trick-or-treating that evening.

They still have their regular hay rides, moon bounce, catch a goldfish by hand, face painting, free fingerprinting, football toss, bean bag toss, tick tac toe, fortune telling and lots of good food.

There will be Frito pie, nachos, barbecue on a bun, sausage wraps, pickles and the great cotton candy made by the church. The Girl Scouts have sponsored the carnival for 16 years to provide a safe alternative on Halloween night. This is the only fund-raiser the Girl Scouts have to provide programs for the girls throughout the year Please come out to support them as well as many other local non-profit organizations. They hope the new time will help the parents do all they want to do this year for their little ghosts and goblins on Halloween and have a safe, enjoyable time.

Cowboy Fellowship
