Goblin’s Glory
By Richelle Paulson
Candy, treats, costumes, and FFA? That’s right. On October 30, the Stockton FFA chapter had their 13th Annual Goblin’s Glory. This year the FFA students prepared by making flyers and other advertisements, setting up for the soup supper, sending letters out to the Grade School students for the costume contest, nominating the King and Queen, and of course, the games.
Sophomore Eric Pfeifer, helped out by working the can smash. “It was fun watching kids smash cans.”
The games included Wheel-of-Fortune, Dart Throw, Cake Walk, Putt-Putt Golf, Basketball Throw, English Ladder, Football Throw, Turkey, Bowling, Softball Throw, Ring Toss, Plinko, Can Smash, and Bingo.
“It was pretty cool,” said Green. “I had a blast.”
The timing of Goblin’s Glory was a little different this year than in recent years.
“Usually we do it before Halloween, like around the 20th so next year we need to decide if we want it on the Friday or Saturday before Halloween,” said Shane Austin, agriculture education instructor.
Several of the FFA Alumni helped out by cooking this year. “A lot of people come for the soup supper,” said Austin. “People thought it was a good time as long as they got soup.” Towards the end of the night they ran out of food.
The final activity of the night was the crowning of royalty. Senior FFA and FCCLA members could be nominated for Goblin’s Glory King and Queen. This year there were four SHS seniors nominated for King and Queen. They were Jordann Wiltfong, Adam Murchie, Macee Kellner, and Calvin Dix. All week SHS students voted for the finalists by donating money to the FFA chapter. There was also a table set up at Goblin’s Glory for others to vote. At the end of the night Seniors Adam Murchie and Macee Kellner were crowned King and Queen.
