Last Friday night’s annual Canyon Cares Fall Festival was a success, bringing an estimated crowd of 8,000 from GCU’s surrounding community to campus for fun, games and trick-or-treating.

The Candy War winners were Nate Jones’ team from Tempe (12 members, 83 pounds of candy collected) and the College of Arts and Sciences (49 members, 330 pounds of candy). For their efforts, each team will receive $100 toward lunch.
