Every year I stress hard for about the last week leading up the Zombie Walk. This year was no different. I say things like, “I’m done promoting” and “This is my last year.” I get all weird about the turnout, press coverage, volunteers and how much beer we’ll need.
I am happy to announce that the 3rd Annual Sioux Falls Zombie Walk was a complete success.
We had 309 undead on the walk, raised $1000 for the State Theatre, and donated 145lbs of food to the Sioux Falls Food Pantry. We drank 2.3 kegs of free beer and watched four fantastic bands, which included the debut performance of The Electric Super Wumpus!
If you missed it this year, you should feel bad. If you miss it next year, you’ll never forgive yourself.
The 4th Annual Sioux Falls Zombie Walk falls on HALLOWEEN!
The winners of the zombie costume contest were:
Funniest Zombie: The Scooby Doo Gang
Most Deadicated Zombie: Scuba Snip
Most Offensive Zombie: Escaping Fetus Zombie
And Best Overall Zombie: ZOMBIE JESUS!
I also want to take a minute and thank everyone who volunteered that night and the nights leading up to the ZW. This walk couldn’t happen without your help. So, thank you Eric, Adrienne, Kim, Kelly, Dylan, Gwee, Captain, Robyn, Josh, Liz & Sarah, Mike, Alex and anyone else I might be forgetting right at the moment. A special huge thanks goes out to Detroit. Your posters are truly works of art. Once again, you set the bar a little higher for next year’s poster/flier/billboard. My head is off to you.
Undeadly Yours,
Zed
