Budget Office Halloween Party

Answer 1

Boost office morale with a fun Halloween party. Whatever the size of your business, there’s a way to have a budget-friendly party. Send out a memo to your staff with the details of the planned activities, so they can prepare. Listed are just a few ways to get your office party started.

Costumes

Plan a costume contest to encourage the staff to dress up. For a twist choose a costume-theme for the contest like politicians, famous people from history, or celebrities. Prizes can range from trick-or-treat bags filled with candy to a day off from work. If your office is really small, but part of a larger office complex, invite the other businesses to participate in your activities.

Refreshments

Potlucks are a popular and cheap way to provide refreshments. They also give employees who may not be inclined to participate in wearing costumes another way to be involved in the festivities. Ordering a variety of pizzas and providing soft drinks is also budget-friendly.

Pumpkin Contests

Provide small pumpkins and art supplies for a pumpkin decorating and carving contests. The cooks in the office will enjoy a baking contest that requires them to use pumpkin filling. Have an ugly pumpkin pageant; the person with the most irregular shaped or odd colored pumpkin wins.

Charitable Gesture

Provide lunch to the staff while they fill trick-or-treat bags with candy. Deliver the bags of trick-or-treat goodies to children in local hospitals.
