Teen Spooky Night: Friday, October 27, 2023

Start Time: 5:30 PM
End Time: 8:30 PM
Ages: 12 to 15 (Parents not allowed! Shh...)

Get ready for a hair-raising party that's exclusively for teens! Bring your bravest friends and head to the community center for a night filled with thrills and chills. The lights will go out, and the spooky atmosphere will set the stage for a night of spine-tingling fun. You can expect cool visual effect projections, great music, free popcorn, and sweets available for purchase on-site. The combo ticket includes admission, 2 pizza slices, and 1 beverage, all for just $15 (taxes not included).

Spooky Night Rules:

• Costumes: Get creative with your costume, but remember no masks that cover your entire face, as they may obstruct vision and pose safety concerns. Opt for makeup or face paint instead.
• No Weapons or Props: For everyone's safety, costumes with realistic weapons, swords, guns, or any props that could be mistaken for real weaponry are prohibited.
• Age-Appropriate Costumes: Make sure your costumes are age-appropriate and not overly gory, violent, or explicit. Zombies, however, are totally welcome!
• Respect Cultural Sensitivities: Be mindful of cultural sensitivities and avoid costumes that could be offensive or culturally insensitive.
• Let's Have a Blast, but Let's Keep It Fun: Respect is key; no inappropriate behaviour, intimidation, overly intimate actions, or disrespecting each other.
• Leave No Trace: Help keep the party vibes going by cleaning up after yourselves and showing love for the venue.
• No Alcohol or Drugs: Alcohol and drugs have no place at this gathering. Let's have a great time together without them!

Remember, these rules are all about ensuring everyone has a fantastic time. If anyone isn't on board with that, they'll be kindly asked to leave. Let's make this night unforgettable—in the best way possible!

Public Skating in Costume: Saturday, October 28, 2023

Start Time: 6:30 PM
End Time: 7:30 PM

If you're a fan of both Halloween and ice skating, this event is a match made in heaven! Come to the Centre Meredith dressed in your spookiest costume and hit the ice. Remember, children 12 years and under must wear a helmet and be accompanied by a parent on or off the ice. No figure skating or coaching is allowed during public skates. Registration is open to Chelsea residents on Friday evening and non-residents on Saturday morning.

Night Rules:

• Costumes: Again, no masks that cover your entire face, for safety reasons. Instead, go for makeup or face paint.
• No Weapons or Props: Realistic weapons, swords, guns, or props that could be mistaken for real weaponry are a no-go.
• Age-Appropriate Costumes: Keep it age-appropriate, avoiding overly gory, violent, or explicit costumes.
• Respect Cultural Sensitivities: Be aware of cultural sensitivities when selecting your costume.
• Let's Have a Blast, but Let's Keep It Fun: The same rules apply here - respect, cleanliness, and no alcohol or drugs.
