Do you know what these are?? MOLDS! Ruth, who runs the Tunnel of Terror during Halloween donated hundreds of dollars in molds to the Lakeland Art Department last week and we went and got them. Beautiful works of art will emerge from these! If you see Ruth, THANK her! And speaking of donations, if you want to donate give us a call!
