What's Up For Hallowe'en in Tofino and Ucluelet?

Before we get to Hallowe'en adventure info I'd like to remind people of the upcoming candidate debates for the municipal elections The first in Tofino is this Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 7 p.m. and the second is Wed., Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. The meetings will be at the Tofino Community Hall.In Ucluelet, the chamber of commerce will host an all-candidates meeting on Wed., Nov. 2 from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at the George Fraser Room in the Ucluelet Community Centre.
Get informed and plan to vote on November 19th.
Alright, politics covered let's talk about the upcoming Hallowe'en weekend, in chronological order (also, "starting with the one we're most excited about" order)

Saturday, October 29th; Long Beach Radio Presents; The Hallowe'en Bash featuring Ross Neilsen and The Sufferin' Bastards. We'll be bringing the Party to Tofino's Weigh West Marine Resort. Doors at 8, opening act Jay Bowcott of Tired Skies and Art School will be taking to the stage shortly after, then at 9:30 ish, about when the Canucks finish beating The Washington Capitals, The Bastards will hit the stage (in zombie form).  Here's a neat video with a Sufferin' Bastards tune about murder with a skull in it, seems Hallowe'en-y to me.


In addition to some fun decorations we've got scary zombie themed movies that will be playing in the background like this classic:

We've also got prizes lined up for those who show up in costumes, there's gonna be a cash bar so the event is 19+, tickets are $10 and are available in The Dockside Pub at The Weigh West.

For The Grown-Ups in Ucluelet looking to get their Hallowe'en on before the 31st there's a party at The Ucluelet Community Hall, here are the details we have:

The Legion in Tofino has The Funk Hunters on October 31st for "actual" Hallowe'en. Djs that will get you dancing. Tickets are available at The Tofitian Coffee Shop and The Long Beach Surf Shop. 19+ of course.
