The games were created by our master-mind, the chief engineer, Mel. Mel is the builder and brains behind the frameworks of backdrops, ceilings, and any other prop a client may request. For the Halloween Carnival, Mel spent hours building unique games reminiscent of what you would find on a summer boardwalk. We had Skee Ball, 7-11, Baseball Tic-Tac-Toe, and more, all built in self-contained, sturdy structures. These games were the essence of the carnival and were a lot of fun to play.
The decorations, as previously mentioned, were planned to be a mix of fun, kid-friendly pictures and creepy drapes, hung strategically over the walls. We also included black lanterns with red lights hanging from the walls for an extra touch of sophistication. We tried hard not to overdo it, but did just enough to create the right atmosphere.
No party is complete without good music and this event was no exception. Our music mix was put together by our technical wizard, Alexander. He tracked down the best Halloween music you can find and mixed it onto one CD. Ghostbusters, Nightmare Before Christmas, and Night on Bald Mountain are only a few of the 100 minutes saved onto that disk. The atmosphere immediately changed when the music began playing. Alexander has also created some of the best wedding mixes I have ever heard. This guy knows his music.
Naturally, the people who come to the event truly make it what it is. All the best games, music, and plans fail if no one shows up to the party. When focusing on dynamics for an event, advertising is carefully considered and planned. It's the first impression of the event and can really make the difference. Posters, fliers, and word of mouth insured that lots of families attended the Halloween Carnival. It was their attendance and personalities that really made it a fun and successful event. So thanks to everyone who showed up! We loved your costumes and appreciated your contribution to the carnival!
