The room was filled and was wonderfully designed for the halloween season!

  Dancing to the beat of Gangnam Style!
Â
Â
Â
All the lights were off and we can only see the dancers!
Â
Â
Â
Amazing!
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
After the games, the activities, the food and entertainment it was time for the cute little monsters to show off their costumes for the costume contest!

Â

Â
Â
Â
After the kids presented their costumes, we were grouped into several batches and we headed to the different “horror rooms” wherein we collected candies in our little baskets.
Â
Â
Â
The “monsters” inside each room gave us a fright as we pass by, but kuddos to the design team of Acacia for a lovely setup!
Â
Â
Â
After we filled our bags with treats, it was time to announce the winners of the costume contest! I believe the prize was an overnight stay at their hotel! Wow!

Â
Â
And the winners are…

Â
