Bump… Don’t forget… This is a great, safe event for the kids. Plenty of adults will be there to keep an eye on the kids.

The Junior Fire Fighters at Eureka would like to extend our thanks to everyone that came out and helped make our first Halloween Dance Party a great success. Your feedback was greatly appreciated and we hope to expand on it for next year.

We hope everyone enjoyed the safe atmosphere we provided for the kids of the community.

Hey Alex -
I brought a van full of girls to the dance and they all had a great time!  I spoke with one of the organizers that night and told her it was a great idea too.  Maybe next year, get the word out a bit better, not many seemed to know about it.  It was a great event for the community and something fun and safe for the kids to do!  Thanks again!

Great idea; perhaps a day of the week other than a highschool football night would garner better attendance.

Thanks for the additional ideas. This event was run by the Juniors (14 and 15 yr olds) with help from their advisors and parents. We let them do their thing as much as possible. They did not have as much luck with advertising, in part because the school would not hand out flyers to all the students since it was not school sponsored. The interesting thing there though is the school hands out open house flyers for us twice a year… go figure!

Thanks again. Glad the kids enjoyed.
