The 10th annual Reader's Choice awards from the Press Enterprise came out in last Sunday's paper. Events, restaurants, and entertainment is rated by the readers of the paper. The Grand Terrace Days festival and parade was listed as the second favorite event in the County--with Route 66 being #3 and the Yucapia Iris Festival rated #1.

Community Services would like to thank the GT Days Committee, the volunteers, and our sponsors that put the true spirit of community in this festival.

Mark your calendars for GT Days 2006, Saturday, June 3rd. The next GT Days Committee meeting is Wednesday, December 7th at 2 p.m. in City Hall. The public is always invited to attend. For more information, please call Community Services at 430-2201.


GTTV Channel 3 Adelphia Cable is now showing the recent Halloween Haunt event and the Country Fair. See the hundreds of children that dressed up---some with their parents--to enjoy the Haunt event. Over 1,000 pounds of quality candy was given away that evening along with hundreds of dollars in prizes.
Grand Terrace residents won every prize in the raffle with one exception going to a child from Highgrove.

Enhancements are being considered by the committee for next year that would limit any politcal messaging and giving community groups the ability to reserve key locations in the Haunt.
