=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- more info on this fun event that you can get into now! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Last year (2019) we had in-person,
DOCENT guided tours of scary stories at buildings around town; Ghost Walk 2019
A GREAT fundraiser for Main Street
Kelly Howsley-Glover was the guiding hand and mover for the project then and NOW!

This year Kelly came up with the idea of doing the tours using videos.
(For the social distancing thing)

Once you donate to get a map of all the locations at
https://www.thedallesmainstreet.org/spooky-town-2020
for either the ADULT (12$) or Family Friendly($10) versions...

For either version,
you get a map and a list of all the places you can go,
via an emailed PDF.

We hope people will go for the walk; good fall fun and exercise for those interested in perambulation..

..And for those with less ability / interest in walking..
.. you can still do the tour right from the comfort of home
using the links within the pdf that you get for your donation
THEN watch all the videos.. with your homemade buttered popcorn

For those that  DO  take the walk... they will find..
QR Codes scannable from your phone or iPad ...
.. in the windows at the addresses in the map.
There is a "how To" video link at the top of the PDF that you get..
that'll get you going .. PLEASE DO SHARE WITH ALL YOUR FRIENDS , ALL AGES !!

=-=-=-=- thanks and plans forward  to extend this adventure... =-=-=-=-=-=-
Kelly had the help of Cody Yeager in voicing and putting together the list of places.
THANKS nice people (and please thank the unknown male voice of a few video stories)

Sarah Mall, our Main Street web-guru set up our site's pages for bringing people in and giving them secure donating/purchasing functions. THANKS Sarah !

so many more people to thank!
And, we will build on this to continually add locations.
We intend to put out a downtown QR Code set
for as many businesses that want to have our help
in getting their business or building on the map ..
building histories .. history of businesses in buildings
video stories of Art and Sights around town.
more later on all that later this year and next
