Last Friday, members of the Fender Family traded their casual attire for entertaining, clever, and downright spooky costumes in the 2015 Halloween celebration! A costume contest was hosted by the Black Swan and Dirty Duck, and employee judges gave out prizes to those who strutted down the runway. Some of the most memorable costumes include Flo from Progressive, a crazy haired Troll doll, and a spectacular and sassy Amy Winehouse! Following the contest, there was a rousing pumpkin sweep relay race, and delicious sweet treats were enjoyed. We hope everyone had a rockin’ and safe Halloween!
