🥇Anita and Chaberton along with Jenni and Bobbi won best costume in the Adult Amateur division!

🥇Lennox and Mr. Fahrenheit won best costume in the Junior division!

We also played some fun Halloween games!

🥇Stella and Silver Lining won the egg on spoon game! They were able to weave through all the poles the fastest while keeping the egg safely on the spoon!

🥇Chelsea and Carlsbad took the podium in the stride adjustability test. They were able to get 5 different stride numbers in a 5 stride pole line. They rode the line in 6,7,8,9 and 10 strides! Just like the real Ferrari F1 team they are speedy and adjustable!

🥇The team of Maryam, Jenni, Jenna and Drew won the pole weaving speed class. With a strong start from the one jumper on the team, Jenna and Scooter, the team was able to keep their lead with some speedy maneuvering and pole weaving!

Thank you to all the team members who participated! Happy Halloween from everybody on Team Sperabo!🎃👻💀
