The Killington Community Update last Wednesday, Oct. 9, also doubled as the Killington Pico Area Association’s (KPAA) annual meeting. KPAA president Beth Sarandrea presented key financials of the year as well as the Business Member of the Year award to Robert “Sal” Salmeri of Moguls Sports Bar.
“Sal’s incredible work for the community over the past 30 years and his vision for for our third Signature Event is truly appreciated. Thank you, Sal!” Sarandrea said.
The organization’s newly announced third annual Signature Event is the Killington Haunted House. When Salmeri closed Moguls earlier this year, he decided to donate his haunted house collection of decorations — worth about $10,000, he said — to the KPAA and Killington Elementary School so they could run it as a fundraiser.
“We like to call it… Sal-O-Ween,” the KPAA wrote in it’s newsletter this week.
The Killington Haunted House will be constructed at the Welcome Center and it kicks off with a night dedicated to the Killington Elementary School, Thursday, Oct. 17 from 5-8 p.m.
Friday and Saturday, Oct. 18-19, the haunted house is open 6-10 p.m. and will be scarier than Thursday. “Dare to enter if you’re ready for the real scares!” the KPAA noted.
