It's almost Halloween...that means it's almost time for our annual philanthropy event @ SIPA (Search to Involve Pilipino Americans).
This is one of 4 seasonal community events SIPA holds (the others being a Christmas event, an Easter event, and their Super Summer Celebration). The main goals of this event are to bring the Historic Filipinotown community (especially its youth) together to celebrate a happy and safe Halloween within the controlled confines of the event. There's always plenty of food and lots of games for everyone to take part in; however, the main draw of SIPA Halloween is its Haunted House.
SIPA Halloween has become an annual philanthropy for Troy Philippines. Troy Phi over the past years has built and run the Haunted House (run meaning scaring everyone who enters the house). Everyone who has ever taken part in this event (the children/SIPA Staff/Troy Phi members) has had a lot of fun, and we will continue to take part in SIPA Halloween for many years to come.
In 2005 SIPA Halloween's Haunted House took place in the new Temple Gateway Youth & Community Center for the first time. This venue is a lot bigger than previous venues and has better sound/AV systems to scare everyone with.
This year, we have the support of other local Filipino collegiate organizations such as CPP Barkada (congrats on SPUF BTW), CSUF PASA, UCI Kababayan, CSULB PAC, and TDB-Long Beach.

Below is a video from last year's SIPA Halloween. This video features Cory as the tour guide, Mondo in a screaming match, Camille rolling on the ground in a box, many many others, and a whole lot of screaming...
