Halloween at the Resorts

[bigsmooth]

OK- First trip home in October includes Halloween. I've already reserved tickets to MNSSHP for Oct 30th. My question is, for actual Halloween day, do any of the DVC resorts do anything special? I thought I had read somewhere about trick or treating on the boardwalk- but can't find that reference. Also wondering if the resorts themselves do anything unique (we'll be at SSR). I'll have two girls with costumes (princess costumes, of course) with them for Bibbidi Bobbidi and MNSSHP, was wondering if they could use them Halloween day.

Did a little 'google' digging, found this from an archived article on MousePlanet from 2005:

So I answered my own question, assuming that they do the same thing this year. Did anyone do any of these activities last year with their kids? If so, how was it?

"DVC to get into the Halloween spirit
Disney Vacation Club resorts will feature special Halloween celebrations this year. A special Halloween evening event will be held at the BoardWalk Resort from 5:30-8:30 p.m., with music, characters, trick-or-treating and other activities. The Saratoga Springs Resort will host a Halloween pool party, featuring trick-or-treating, a mummy-wrapping contest and an outdoor Halloween movie. There will be a whole week worth of activities at Old Key West Resort, where daily Halloween crafts projects help count down to Halloween events including pumpkin decorating, costume contests and a pool party. The other DVC resorts (including the Hilton Head Island and Vero Beach Resorts) will also be joining in the fun, as well. So if you're a DVC member who will be visiting on Halloween but not going to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, keep your eye out for special events at your resort!"
