Ghosts and goblins invade Servus Place
Halloween fun takes shape on Friday, Oct. 21 as Servus Credit Union Place morphs into a fun centre for kids of all ages.
There’s a haunted hotel as well as a haunted inflatable where the munchkin crowd can burn off energy. Several other active options include laser tag, bubble football and a dance zone.
If kids are into making their skin crawl, they can check out the creepy, crawly petting zoo. But if they’re into quieter activities, there are always a few ghoulish games and crafts.
The Halloween party runs from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Servus Place, 400 Campbell Rd. Participants must have a Servus Place membership or pay drop-in admission.
Wristbands are available for purchase all day. Pick up wristbands early to avoid lineups.
