Safe & Fun Halloween Downtown happens Oct. 31
The scarecrows are created annually by students, as a classroom group, throughout Paso Robles schools. Winning classrooms are eligible to earn awards, and voters often win mystery prizes at stores where ballots are cast.
Students from Mrs Reynold’s second grade class at Trinity Lutheran School created this scarecrow situated at the entrance of Headhunters barber shop.
Trick or Treat downtown on Tuesday

Don your cutest, most original, or scariest costume, venture downtown, and take part in the fun!
