Anonymous said...Willow Street was used for many dances and other activities in the '50s, including Halloween parades and costume judging. I remember one year Kenny Pettit and Milton Rutter decided to go at the last minute but they had no costumes. They stole sheets off their parents beds, Milton put on a wig and red lipstick and Kenny put some leaves on his head and they went as Julius Caesar and wife. They won first prize.
Typical of a dance, more people watching from the sidelines then actually dancing.
