Mansfield Mayor Mike Gipson presented three homeowners in the city with a “Mayors Spooktacular Yard” award. The yards were judged on their festive Halloween décor.
Taking first place were Keith and Teresa Peterson; second place, Melissa Williams and third place James and Iris Steele.
All three winners were surprised by the award and inspired by the recognition from the mayor’s office. Iris Steele commented that she had never known of city hall being opened to trick-or-treaters, and hopes it becomes an annual tradition.
