Indoor fun for families at Holyoke Mall Fall-A-Palooza

A new follow-up, fall-a-palooza, that's a hard one to say, event took place at the Holyoke Mall today. And 22 News reporter Aretha Odaya joins us live in studio with how these families spent their day off. Yeah, definitely a tongue twister there. Today, kids in Holyoke got to enjoy their long weekend by taking part in some Halloween activities. The spooky fun began this morning at the Holyoke Mall's first fall-a-palooza. Their attendees enjoyed fall-themed crafts, face painting, balloons, glitter tattoos, and a visit from a fan-favorite gothic teen, Wednesday Addams. The marketing director of the Holyoke Mall tells us they do an annual event during the summer, only now they decided to give kids an indoor play opportunity in the fall as well, just in time for the holiday weekend. Kids being out of school and wanting to have them have an option of something indoors potentially in the fall, wanting to do something fun that families can enjoy together. The Holyoke Mall brought Clown Teak and Something Royal Party Company to put together the event. Hinkley tells us that they hope to have their next event soon, which could potentially be for Santa's arrival. Now, the kids seem to have a great day off in their Halloween costumes, so families, make sure to stay tuned for the mall's next event. Working for you, Aretha Odaya, 22 News.
