The annual Children’s Light Party (an alternative to Halloween) came and went with a hiss and a roar!
Hundreds of kids & adults left with smiles on their faces.
Here is some feedback from a few participants:
I’ve been to heaps of Light Parties through Vineyard Church. The Dr Seuss theme was great! More so, as I won first prize dressed up as the Grinch. Grace O (11)
I love Light Parties. They are much more fun than what Halloween would be. The bouncy castle was supa-fun! I dressed up as Thing Two. Faith T (7)
This was my second Light Party at Vineyard. My costume was Thing One. I took a friend with me. The night was very enjoyable. Nicola W (8)
I was asked to help in the BBQ area. The three BBQ’s were professionally manned by their owners, so I was promoted to Tomato Sauce Administrator. The manners of ALL children was mind-blowingly amazing. It was a pleasure being part of this worthwhile community event. Thank you MountainView Vineyard staff, volunteers, and Council for making this possible. Nathan W (50+)
I went to the Light Party with my family, cousins, and Grandma. The games and Mr Hunger’s bikes were the best. Ate heaps of lollies! Nathan T (10)
The Vineyard Light Party was my first in Taranaki. I enjoyed seeing my friends, and the toilet paper game (Ed. makes the mind boggle at the thought!). Looking forward to going again next year. Taliah M (9)
