Menifee 24/7 Halloween Festival Back With New Sponsor

Menifee 24/7's annual Halloween festival returns to Wheatfield Park this year with more fun than ever for families and especially the kids.

This year's event, scheduled for Oct. 22, is titled "Menifee 24/7 Truck or Treat HallowFest" and is presented by RE/MAX Diamond, one of the top real estate companies in Menifee and a strong supporter of family-oriented activities. We are pleased to be sponsored by RE/MAX real estate agent Cynthia Nemelka, who will be there as usual with her own spooky costume and giant inflatable gargoyle. And of course she'll be joined by dozens of other local businesses handing out candy to the kids in a safe and fun way.

The highlight of our event, as always, is our Halloween costume contest. Every year, hundreds of children of all ages dress up and parade for all to see. It's one of our most popular events of the year, as many of you know. This year we will have more volunteer help, more check-in areas and specific times for each age group. And yes, the pet costume contest is back!

We'll have live entertainment by local youth groups and performers on our stage, more games for the kids and an expanded Kids Zone. And perhaps our biggest improvement is the presence of 12 food trucks, offering every kind of food you'd want.

So mark your calendars now and get ready for a great time with the kids. If you would like to volunteer at the event, would like to place a booth there to promote your group or business, or have an idea for a fun activity, email us at menifee247info@gmail.com.
