Petersham Montessori School hosted its Halloween fundraiser, Spooktacular, on Saturday, Oct. 28. The event, which helps support the school’s activities, was organized by Krysten Harty and Patty Upshaw, who serve as parent volunteers and board members at the school. In the above photo, Carly Dickhaut and her son Dax (left), Courtney Walsh and son Aidan (center) and Halim Qarghah enjoy making Halloween cupcakes.

At right, for a fine motor challenge and more sanitary spin on the classic apple bobbing, attendees used kitchen utensils and skeleton hands to scoop their apples. Pictured here are Benjamin Harty and Ronan Dickhaut.
