Utah Tech University's Service Branch of the Utah Tech Student Association will host its annual Special Needs Halloween Carnival on Oct. 12, according to a report published Oct. 8.
The event is scheduled to take place from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Gardner Student Center to provide the Southern Utah special needs community with a safe place to celebrate Halloween.
The carnival will feature games, crafts, treats, and karaoke. Admission to the event is free, and attendees are encouraged to wear costumes.
Utah Tech Student Association vice president of service Sydney Sorensen said the carnival creates an opportunity for students and the community to enjoy a fun evening of festivities and create lasting memories.
Anilee Adams, assistant director of Student Involvement and Leadership at Utah Tech, stated the event is a tradition that allows students to host a fun event for the special needs community in St. George.
The event will be managed by volunteers consisting of Utah Tech students, faculty, and staff. The goal of the event is to allow Utah Tech students to connect, build friendships, and celebrate with the community in a welcoming environment.
