"Chainsaw" Stella O'Rourke
 
Stella has been a key component in this year's Haunted House.  Not only did she attend just about every contruction night AND scaring night, but she also picked up the pizza for the volunteers on a fill-in basis.  She also purchased the candy for our "Light's On" Matinee and attended our blood drive.  Without her help, the Haunted House would not have been the success that it was.
