Boo-Boo had been looking forward to the Historical Society’s Halloween party all month. He had never been to one before, and was excited to dress up in his best white sheet.
The night of the party finally arrived, and Boo-Boo was so excited that he could hardly sleep. He got up early, just after sunset, then headed down to the community center by the sea.
As he walked through the door, Boo-Boo saw that the party was already in full swing. There were pumpkins everywhere, and people were dressed up in all sorts of costumes. He saw a group of kids playing tag, and went over to join them.
Suddenly, Boo-Boo felt a hand pull on his sheet. He turned around to see a monster grinning at him with its ugly mouth wide open! Boo-Boo quickly lifted up his sheet and revealed his own scary and nasty mouth. The monster screamed and ran away, scattering the other kids in every direction.
He didn’t stop running until he got all the way home. Once he was there, he even hid under the bed. He was so scared that he didn’t want to go back to the community center ever again!

He decided to go as himself and flew to the party in a cloud of dark smoke.
Obscuro was getting excited for the upcoming Halloween party. It would be his first one of the season, and he was looking forward to dressing up in his favorite costume. He had white latex skin that made his face look like a mask, so he always stuck out in a crowd. But that was exactly why he loved going to Halloween parties- he loved the opportunity to show off his unique look.
Lucius Morte had never been to a Halloween party before. He had always been too busy tormenting the damned in the 4th level of hell to bother with earthly celebrations.

He found a community center by the sea that was hosting a Halloween party and decided to attend.

Gourdy Bane saw a couple of gourds wearing pirate costumes, and he couldn’t help but laugh. He loved Halloween parties, and he was having a great time dancing to the music and eating candy.

His little orange boots matched his little pumpkin body perfectly.
Mr. Creepers was all dressed up and ready to go to the community center by the sea for the earliest Halloween party of the season.

The Frankster had always loved Halloween. He loved the costumes, the candy, and most of all, the parties. This year, he was especially excited for the party at the community center by the sea. It was two days before the full moon, and he could feel a tiny bit of a cool autumn breeze in the air.
Wooblydook was really excited to attend the Halloween party at the community center by the sea. He had never been to one before, and he was looking forward to kale pulling and making neep lanterns. The party was two days before the full moon, and Wooblydook was hoping it would start to get chilly soon. He loved being out in the cold and feeling his bat-like ears flap in the wind.
As the sun began to set, the community center by the sea came to life. Lights flickered on, announcing that the earliest Halloween party of the season was about to start. A golden sun slowly rose in the sky, growing brighter and brighter as it got closer to the horizon. As it reached its peak, people whispered: this sun only came out at night. It was the Midnight Sun.

La Colonia, the older of the two communities, was developed in 1919/20 for Mexican workers who tended the large citrus groves in Rancho Santa Fe. In creating a subsequent 1923 subdivision, Eugene Batchelder registered the name Eden Gardens. In a further expansion in 1944 the name reverted to La Colonia and today is referred to as La Colonia de Eden Gardens…
Incorporation of Solana Beach was in 1986 and included the area of La Colonia de Eden Gardens. The City Charter provided a Council-City Manager form of government, with the Mayor’s position rotating among the Council members.
