So this Halloween was fantastically phenomenal! Some of the local ladies decided to decorate the resource room for a spectacular haunted Halloween house for the kids.
With some funding from resources this would not have been possible.
With some teenagers volunteering, and armful of crafty, talented, resourceful people, they decorated. And turned the place into a wonderful area for young ones and older children, so all could enjoy.
Kids came, and played games. They got spooked, and scared, and laughed so hard!!!
I met a new neighbour, which would not have been possible if not for the haunted house.
I am so very proud of the hard work these girls have put in to make this a fantastic event for the kids. And the local teenagers for helping out. As well as some volunteers from the church.
I've never taken my son trick or treating in my neighbourhood. We are low-income, so we go to the middle-class houses for that. I know how hard it is for me to maintain food in my own house, let alone feed other people's children. And besides, candy and chocolate are a treat. A rarity in our lives.
So Thank You. For bringing fun back into the 'hood, and making it a great event to spend Halloween in the "hood".
It was fabulous! And Fantastic! Thank You!
