Programs described in its return (1)
- The organization facilitates an annual Haunted House event ("Monster Bash Haunted House") in Harmony, MN where the students, their families and other volunteers raise funds to support its mission. The Haunted House event is open to the public for approximately 3 weekends (generally 9 days) during the Halloween season. Students, families and other volunteers plan, then build and decorate for the Haunted House (which has a different theme, layout and scares every year), take tickets for guests visiting the Haunted House and then help tear down the set-up after the season is complete. The funds are used to support the Music Theater and Art Departments as well as to cover expenses for the building where the Haunted House takes place and props, and equipment are stored.
