New London, MN and surrounding communities The Wonder Bread Years is coming your way on Sat Oct 26th. This is nothing but nostalgic fun and an escape from the news of the day. The closest thing to a time machine as we travel back to a simpler time of Pop Rocks and Pixie Stix right before Halloween. At time we xrayed kids candy or trick or treated in a golf cart. You had to put in the leg work and if you did you would have enough candy to last you until Easter which was the next great candy haul. Let's get our laugh on together at The New London/Spicer School District.
