CIL staff celebrated Halloween with a spooktacular twist as part of our monthly Health and Wellness activities. Gainesville’s team enjoyed a tasty Publix buffet, while Ocala staff relished delicious Publix box lunches. Fun activities included Halloween trivia, word games, a pumpkin challenge, and a lively costume contest. Laughter, sweet and savory treats, and camaraderie made it a memorable day. Throughout the season, our Halloween spirit shone with creative door decorations, and a “Spooky Secret Staff” game added a spooky touch to the weeks leading up to Halloween. We hope you all had a bewitching Halloween season!
