Prepare for a spooky Mancos Halloween

Halloween should be fun in Mancos this year, as a few organizations and groups have announced plans to offer a little bit extra.

The Lions Club will host a Halloween Carnival from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the VFW Hall, also called the Mancos Operah House. There will be games, candy, balloon animals and all sorts of fun stuff. The event is free.

"We do it as a public service for the kids," said Linda Walters with the Lions Club.

There is no age limit.

Trick or Treat with the Artisans of Mancos, 101 Grand Ave., Mancos. on Oct. 31 until 8 p.m.

Join some ghoulish games, freaky fun, and frightening food.

Mancos Public Library invites you to the Halloween Howl (a pre-trick or treat party) Oct. 31 from 5 to 6 p.m.

Spruce up your costume with mask making supplies, get your face painted, enjoy a warm bowl of turkey chili, visit with friends and plan your evening trick or treating strategies.
