The Irricana Fire Department, in conjunction with the Community Service Board and the RCMP, is hosting a Light Up The Night safety program at 5 p.m. on Halloween night.

Free glow sticks and other safety items will be provided to all in attendance, and all attendees will be reminded about Halloween safety before they embark on their night of fun.

Come visit - if you dare - the 2nd Street Sanitarium on Halloween night from 5-9 p.m. This scary event will incorporate photos by Soul Snatcher Darin Saarela and fortunes by Madame Kallipiso, followed by treats for all those who live through the experience.

On Oct. 29 from 2-6 p.m., Community Links and Beiseker Pre-School will be hosting a family Halloween event at the building at 401 - 5th Street. For those brave enough to attend, the afternoon will feature a haunted house for ages eight and older.

A tour guide will take participants on a guided tour through a vampire lair, a spooky witches coven and werewolf alley. There will also be crafts, face painting, and games. Participants are invited to bring a carved pumpkin and maybe win a prize for their creation.

The $1 charge for the haunted house will go to support Community Links and the Beiseker Pre-School. Wear your costume and expect a screamin’ good time. For more information, call 403-947-2841 or 403-947-2463.
