   Halloween has always been a favorite holiday for many teens. Who wouldn't want to run around dressed as your favorite cartoon character collecting free candy? Another question is: how many Timpanogos students actually participate in Halloween festivities? When asked if she was planning on going trick-or-treating, sophomore Lisa Raymond replied, "Nope, my parents think that I'm old enough that it'll be rude if I ask for free candy." 

    Junior Robyn Omer had a similar response, "Probably not. I might take my nephews trick-or-treating, but after that I'm going to Halloween parties and stuff."

    On the other hand, sophomore Michael Thurman responded with, "Yeah, of course. All day!"

    More often than not though, most of our students turned out to be planning huge Halloween bashes, or attending family gatherings. Interestingly enough, out of the ones who are going on the hunt for sugary treats, more guys than girls were looking forward to it.  Either way, parties, candy, or both, Halloween is always a fun holiday that everyone can enjoy.
