We had a great time being part of the Historic Downtown Prosser Trick-or-Treat Event on Friday, October 31. It was wonderful to see so many families and kids enjoying the festivities, costumes, and candy. We loved being part of the community celebration and sharing in the fun of this special tradition!

The Class of 2000 gathered outside the Methodist Church across from Old Prosser High School for a class photo — a tradition once carried on by Prosser High School Senior classes for many years.
