We had a 30 foot obstacle course, Skee-Ball, and soccer kick challenge, three different types of crafts for kids, free hot dogs and popcorn, and a few other games for families to enjoy.

The highlights were just seeing our community come together and have fun together. It seemed that people were making connections and able to just hang out with their family and friends!”

Mannville SafeKids Halloween Party a Great Success

It was a special kind of spooktacular in Mannville at the SafeKids Halloween Party on Oct. 29 at the Elks Hall.

Community members along with local businesses partnered to bring the SafeKids Halloween Party to fruition. It was well received as more than 120 people attended the fun-filled event that featured games, crafts and colouring projects.

Volunteers had as much fun as the kids and there is already talk of adding a haunted house next year to the festivities.
