Princesses and butterflies and at least one pirate enjoyed Interlakes Community Centre’s (ICC) Halloween party on Oct. 31, which included great food and goodie bags.

With cookie decorating, cakewalks and a haunted house, the children wore themselves out before the event culminated in a fireworks show supervised by Interlakes Volunteer Fire Department.
