The Town of Southborough will hold its annual Halloween Party for Southborough kids on Friday, October 26th. If you have middle schoolers or high schoolers, you may want to nudge them to sign up as volunteers.
(If you have younger kids, you’ll want to save the date.)
Helping out with the party is a fun way to rack up some community service hours. Volunteers help set up, run games, help with the “haunted house” on stage, tell fun/spooky fortunes, etc. The shift is from 6-9 pm. (Volunteers don’t need to worry about dinner. They will be provided pizza.)
This year, the former SYFS event is now sponsored by Southborough Rec and Friends of Southborough Recreation. Anyone interested in helping out can contact Jennifer Hom at jhom@southboroughma.com or 508-229-4452.
If you are looking for details to attend – the event is for kids and families. (Children must be accompanied by an adult.)
The party is from 7:00 to 8:30 pm in the Finn School Cafeteria. (Ignore any calendars that list a different time!)
Admission is $5 per child, max $15 per family.
Once inside, everything is free: games, prizes, face painting, art activities and loads of treats.
Costumes are encouraged for children and adults attending the party – but not required.
Note: The party is for Southborough residents only, please.
Volunteers can come in costume, but it isn’t mandatory. Setup is starting at 6:00 before, and cleanup is until 9:00 after.
