Not everyone was in complete disguise



2011-10-31 - 104 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener.
Not everyone came to Treats on the Town in disguise. And some families were mixed. Well known Janet Parrish wasn't too well hidden in the blue shades, but Perry Parrish wasn't so easily recognizable with the neat baseball cap and fake mustache disguise, but their daughter Rachel Parrish was totally incognito in her macabre costume in Pablo's Mexican Grill during Treats on the Town, 2011.

Always a big hit at Treats on the Town: Cotton Candy



2011-11-01 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
Always one of the biggest hits of Treats on the Town, and no exception this year, the Jaycees/Adair Search and Rescue Cotton Candy Booth. Six hundred bags of candy were produced prior to the 4pmCT start of treats on the town. By shortly after 5pmCT, that stockpile was gone, and Master Candymakers Janie Potts, left, and Billy Burns Pickett worked continuously doing catch up. At times, the line to the candy machine stretched for 50 or so people.

Treats on the Town: The long last line - for cotton candy



2011-11-02 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener.
The long last line - and a metric for crowd attendance was for cotton candy. As most successful ever Treats on the Town was concluded, there was still a long line to get to the cotton candy. The line was one of the measures used to arrive at the figure of 1,300 to 1,400 in attendance. Another metric was Sheriff Harrison Mosses candy bags. The Sheriffs prepared for 1,350 and gave out the bags and had to do a small bit of replenishing.

Treats on the Town: The Cinderella Slipper



2011-11-02 - Receptacle, Burkesville and Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener.
Sometimes the smallest things are indicators that there's a much bigger story. I couldn't help but notice this Cinderella slipper after the ball - rather the Treats on the Town - was over. It was left by one of what seemed like hundreds of Little Princesses in our town on Monday night for Treats on the Town. They were all so adorable! I just wonder what there is to the rest of the story. And, of course this grandmother doesn't see every shining princess and think immediately of her own little princess, and the new one coming soon. Not. And one more comment: It was an incredible evening. A time when Pride in Columbia, soared in all of us. What a Wonderful Town. Thanks to the Chamber and to Debbie Selby and everyone responsible for this occasion. - LINDA.
