Supporters of Misercordia arrived in scary, amusing and witty costumes at 27 Live in Evanston recently for the Monster Mash event, which was organized by Winnetka residents Cari Alexander, Geoff Koss, and Tracy and Ward Winslow.
Guests enjoyed an evening of dancing to local bands with the popular Dr. Bombay as the night’s headliner. No Halloween party is complete without a costume contest: Karen and Bill Essig took home the top prize as Beaker and Dr. Bunsen from The Muppets.
More than $7,000 was raised for Misericordia, going directly to the more than 600 children and adults who live and work at the campus in Chicago. Visit monstermashnorthshore.com for more information.
