Guarded by escorts from Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Company, the horde of young marchers ranged from preschool to sixth grade. They made their way up Main Street, turning off to head to Warrensburg Elementary School, where they were met by a costume contest and more festive fun as Halloween night began. Vehicles from the Warren County Sheriff's Office closed down Main Street at its intersection with Richards Avenue, and by the Family Dollar, in order to keep marchers safe and sound.
