They  fed the hungry crowds with hotdogs, nachos, baked goods and refreshments just to name a few! And who could miss Estancia cheerleaders who were passing out balloons to the kids and doing a beautiful job at face painting! A big thank you to all who came out to make this such a great event! Kona Ice brought their colored shave ice cones, Torelli Realty brought a mix of sheep, goats, chickens, turtles...and pony rides! We decorated pumpkins, and had tractor-pulled hay rides!
