PCYC Spooky Success

The Proserpine PCYC was buzzing with activity over the weekend as more than 600 people turned out for this year’s Haunted House event.

Crowds lined up from start to finish to experience the spooky attraction, which featured a redesigned layout allowing visitors to queue in air-conditioned comfort.

Sergeant Billy Li from PCYC Whitsunday emphasized how great the event went, and can't wait for next year.

Alongside the Haunted House, an escape room run by St Catherine’s Catholic College students proved equally popular, with every session booked out. The students took part through the Duke of Edinburgh program, raising funds for their upcoming Adventurous Journey, while the event also supported PCYC programs including gymnastics.

PCYC’s gymnastics program continues to grow, running five days a week and catering to everyone from toddlers in Kindy Gym through to teenagers.

The Haunted House provided a fun and safe Halloween activity for local families, while also helping to raise funds for youth programs across the community.
