Ghouls just wAnt to hAvE fun

Leading up to Halloween we witnessed many vehicle trunks with tasty treats and children of all ages ghouled out to support the annual 138th Fighter Wing event. Even the parents find ways to compliment the little ones' costumes by dressing up as well. This creepy event allowed the children to vote for their favorite decorated trunk and enter a costume contest for their individual age groups. The event concluded with a winner of the "How many M&Ms are in the jar" contest. A huge thank you to everyone who decorated their trunks, helping make this event successful and fun.

A recipe has no soul, You, as the cook, must bring soul to the recipe.

The 138th FIghter Wing Diversity Council, sponsored by the Falcon Booster Club hosted the Wing's first World Food Fest to honor Global Diversity and Family History Month. Airmen participants were asked to cook their favorite ethnic dish, grandma's spaghetti, or comfort food to share with everyone. To kick it up a notch, participants were also asked to describe and explain what makes their dishes special to them.
