A long-time Halloween tradition is back for the youth of Swift Current again this year.
Larry Johnson, Swift Current Kiwanis Club member and longtime organizer of Spookerama is excited to once again have this fun event for the youth of Swift Current and area. “In partnership with the City of Swift Current and Schools, we are once again going to provide a fun venue on October 31st. We will be attending the schools in Swift Current to talk to the students and invite them to attend. This is very enjoyable as the kids are always so excited to hear about Spookerama and making plans with their friends to attend.”
The Kiwanis Spookerama is in its 43rd year of providing a safe and fun Halloween event for kids from grade 6 to grade 8. In recent years, there have been in excess of 300 youth each year take part in Spookerama enjoying the DJ music, free pizza and pop, dancing and having a great time. To make this event possible takes in excess of 40 Kiwanis Club volunteers who are all dedicated to the wellbeing of our youth.
