Halloween

Space and aliens would be the theme of the party. Residents would come dressed up as a planet, an alien or their favorite space themed Sci-Fiction character. All the food, and decoration would have alien and planetary theme, including alien beef jerky from the Alien Fresh Jerky store in Baker, CA.

Everyone loves a costume party, even creatures of the four-legged variety. Halloween can be just as much fun for pets as it is for people, and having a pet costume party will allow you to mingle with other pet lovers and give your favorite furry friend a night to remember! Most likely, your four-legged friends will bring their owners to the party. There are tons of fun games for people to play at a pet costume party while the hounds are having fun. Prizes for Best Costumes: Your guests have put a lot of time and effort into their pet's costumes. Reward them by giving away prizes for the best and most original costumes. You might also give a prize for the best pet/person costume combination, weirdest costume idea or best behaved animal. Doggie Bags: Take-home goody bags are a fun way to thank your guests for...

We are having a Halloween Party at The Landing this Saturday with a pumpkin carving contest, food, candy, games, and following it all up with a community hayride! The pumpkin carving contest has already started and residents are asked to bring in their pumpkins prior to the party so that we can have anyone that comes in the office vote on their favorite. Candy and games will be provided by the office staff and food will be a potluck of sorts with the majority brought in by residents. I've asked our landscaping company to let us borrow a wagon for a memorable hayride immediately following our party. I've also asked residents to sign up to hand out candy during the community hayride. We are very excited about this event and hope to make it a yearly tradition!

The community team are all dressing up as mad scientists that resemble the Doc from Back to the Future movies. We have eyeballs, test tubes, all kinds of candy related to science and doctors. We have food decorated like fingers, brains etc... We even ordered candy from orientaltrading.com that looks like bloodbags, human organs, testtubes etc... Sounds a little graphic when I type it here, but it really isn't! LOL looks like science book stuff from school honestly. We have all of our offices set up with different games for the kids to play. Ring toss, ping pong pails, what's behind the curtain, duck pond and bobbing for apples of course. We have a scavenger hunt throughout the clubhouse and a costume contest as well. Prizes include DVD gift sets, games, radios, toys.

Last year we held a fall festival complete with a kid friendly haunted house inside the office. Spider webs and coffin and dry ice...it was So much fun! This year we are adding a bonfire and hayride.
