Halloween comes in double doses each year for costumed kids at the YMCA of South Collier’s “Bootacular” carnival.
This time around, the youngsters had fun at the Y on Friday evening, then did it all over again Sunday on the actual day.
Traditionally, the Y discourages truly spooky outfits, so once again there were cartoon characters, dinosaurs, a “police officer” and a toddler made-up to look like a pineapple - complete with green hair.
Besides enjoying their adopted characters, the children participated in games of skill in the Y’s outdoor “airnasium,” and parents clicked away to capture the moments on their smartphone cameras.
Pictured is some of the action during the evening.
