10 days. 10 DAYS UNTIL HALLOWEEN.


I can't believe how fast October went, and here we are, the Shady Manor crew, looking at our third year of providing the trick-or-treaters of Montvale something to remember on Halloween.


I believe this year has the potential to be our best year yet, and even though we are almost done with the manor, we can't fall short on the details that make our haunted house great.


There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow:
-Finish the last portion of the maze
-Pre-cut walls to be put up on Halloween
-Shady Manor Sign
-Ribbon entrances at doors to rooms/and in front
-Put television in
-Figure out wiring for outdoor/indoor electronics (lights, tv, music)
-Plan out who is doing what on Halloween night
-Complete Dress Rehearsal


SO! Here's the schedule for tomorrow.
8:00-3:00 school 
4:00-5:00 exclusive performance by The Sightseers (We have a practice tomorrow, you can hang out if you do so please)
5:00-11:00 Shady Manor


Guys please come whenever you can, I know we're almost done, but this meeting will be especially important on figuring out all of the details.


TEXT ME WHEN/IF YOU CAN COME

Friday Bloody Friday

Hey manor folks,
I just want to start this post by thanking everyone from last Friday, we got alot done in a little time, and we're making really good progress. thanks guys.


Now onto business. Believe it or not, Halloween is 23 days away, and we have half a maze, some unfinished plans, and no decorations up. Yeah guys, it's time to put the pedal to the metal and get some work done. That's what tomorrow is for. 


If you can make it tomorrow that'd be great, we literally need all hands on deck if we want to finish this and make it as amazing as it could be.


Here's just a brief rundown of what still needs to be done:
-Finish Maze 
-Room Decor Ideas
-Actually Decorate Rooms
-Figure out front yard (lights/taylor and leannes cool moss)
-Video
-Fliers
-Figure out who's doing what roles on Halloween night.


Alright guys, everyone please text me if/when/how long you can come. There's some personal questions down below. If you see your name, answer the question when you text me. 


*Big C, Ima work on getting the camera ready. Does your fire-wire work with my cam? How could we get vid to computer?
*Caps if we do the video tomorrow, it'd be awesome to have you
*Tucker is there a football game tomorrow
*PJ did you eat the big hershey bar on the cabinet? I wanted to eat it and now it's gone
*Taylor/Leloo Do you guys need more spray paint for the moss?


Let's give the trick or treaters the Halloween they deserve,
-Ryan
