ALIDA - The last weekend of the Alida Haunted House & Fun Fair proved to be very busy.
It started Oct. 27 小蓝视频 slower than usual, however we did have a total of 78 go through the haunted house and four groups also visited the escape rooms. The following day, things again started out slowly but soon picked up and we ended up with a total of 115 visitors making the trip through the haunted house and four more groups went through the escape rooms.
Oct. 29 proved to be extra busy with people of all ages showing up to enjoy this event. The youngsters really enjoyed the fun fair games while their parents paid their way, which we all greatly appreciate.
Many of them also seemed to enjoy a trip through the haunted house minus the spooks. Later there were more visitors to the haunted house once the spooks returned to their selected posts.
At the end we had another 79 visitors go through the haunted house, with a couple groups going to the escape rooms as well. A variety of prizes were handed out.
This 23rd edition of the event brought in approximately $10,000 for the Alida Rec. Board. Much appreciation goes out to everyone – planners, volunteers, donors, workers, participants and especially to all who came to support us.
There was a fairly good attendance at Café 361 on Oct. 25 when they held a noon brunch. It was very delicious as always and it was great to be back at the café for an excellent meal. I can't wait for the next one.
The Alida Ladies Hall and Rink Auxiliary is holding their annual fall supper on Nov. 5 from 4:30-6:30 p.m. at the Alida Community Hall. Hope to see you there.
I hope you all had a safe and happy Halloween everyone. Welcome to November. Do remember our veterans on Nov. 11. Lest we forget.
