If you're looking for a fun Halloween activity to attend, then look no further than ASWVC's HallowFE!N! This year, ASWVC has gone all out with tons of fun activities and treats for you to enjoy this upcoming Halloween. The event will feature many different attractions such a Trunk or Treat, a Mini Pumpkin Patch, and even a haunted house. With all this fun, you and your ‘FE!NS’ are sure to have a blast. This event will be held from 12pm-3pm on October 31st around the Kirkorian Pavilion and Campus Center, with some events occuring in the Baltic Room. Here is the breakdown of all the events to be on the lookout for.
Haunted House:
As mentioned above, there will be a haunted house on campus in the Baltic Room from 12pm-3pm. The haunted house is being provided by our very own Architecture Club, who are going to be setting it up. You know it's gonna be spooktacular when the Architecture Club is on the job.
Trunk or Treat:
The HallowFE!N will also be boasting a Trunk or Treat activity where multiple cars will be parked on campus with candy in their trunks. A delicacy to all, for those with a sweet tooth and a fine taste for automotive vehicles. This event is made possible by the Automotive Club who will be supplying the cars.
Mini Pumpkin Patch:
Another activity being featured at the HallowFE!N event is a Mini Pumpkin Patch! Yes, that's right, West Valley will have its very own Pumpkin Patch on campus in the Kirkorian Pavilion where you can select a pumpkin of your choice and paint it. All pumpkins will be taken home when finished as they will make fine additions to the front porch.
Pumpkin Bowling:
Pumpkin bowling is exactly what it sounds like. You will be given a pumpkin and you must try to knock down the pins. May the best roller win!
Pumpkin Cornhole:
Grab your pumpkin and head on over to the Pumpkin Cornhole activity. Toss the pumpkin into the hole to get a point. Most points wins! A pretty simple yet really fun game that the Activities Committee has set up for this event.
Spooky Cup Pong:
From the great minds of the Activities Committee comes Spooky Cup Pong. Just like normal cup pong but spookified for effect. Red water and eyeball balls, bounce them in to win!
Tarot Card Reading:
ASWVC has hired an actual Tarot Card reader to come and read your fortunes. Whether you want to see what lies in the future for you or check up on how your midterms results are gonna turn out, you can find the answers there with the amazing Victoria.
Movie:
The movies for this event will be held in the Kirkorian Pavilion alongside the Pumpkin Painting. The movies to be featured on such a spooky night will be the award winning ‘Coco’ and the terrifying tale that is ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas.’
Food:
This event will be catered by ‘Boba Guys’ and ‘Fire and Rice’ who will be supplying both boba, and a mix of Asian and Pacific Islander cuisine. Get there fast though as the first 100 people to show up can get an appetizer of either Spam Musubi or Poke Nachos.
This event is jam-packed to the brim with spooky fun, and it's all thanks to the amazing Activities Committee and the clubs that helped make it come to life. We hope to see you all at this event and engage in the community spirit. Happy HallowFE!N!
