Downtown Camas First Friday: Pumpkin Pageant & Disney Costume & Pin Trading Night. Featuring activities, art, dining, and after hours shopping—fun for the whole family! Local art exhibits, themed family games and activities, and free-to-enter gift basket raffles are part of each First Friday line-up! 5-8 pm Haunted Walking Tours at Clark County Historical Museum. Are you curious to hear tales of what haunts the buildings and streets of Downtown Vancouver? Interested in the strange and peculiar side of our local history? Then join us as we take an excursion through Clark County’s haunted history. Every Friday and Saturday night in October, guides from the Clark County Historical Museum (CCHM) will lead inquiring minds to the answers. Join them on walking tours along Main Street and beyond to uncover the unexplained in this historic city. Tickets are $15 with CCHM membership and $18 without. 6-7:30 pm “Puffs; or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic” at Terrell Everest Theater, 14001 SE 1st St., Vancouver. Created in 2015, Puffs ran Off-Broadway for almost 3 years to sold out houses! Sponsored by Triplett Wellman Contractors and Vinnie’s Pizza, Puffs is the story of the not-so-popular kids who are going to a certain school at the same time as a certain boy wizard; you know the one (he’s got that pesky scar on his forehead). Showing weekends in October. Tickets are $12-20 at pacificstageworks. org/purchase-tickets. 7-9:30 pm
