INTELACT staff (from left) Leanne Gifford, Bernie Buist, Anne Bridson, Lynda Murcott, Annette Williams and Gaylene Dorssers with a few of their treats for Halloween. 3060610AD Intelact staff are usually promoting dairy feed supplies while at work, but on Tuesday they had some different treats for their customers. Staff at the Sloane Street business dressed up in Halloween costumes and had goodies such as snakes, bats and ‘eyeballs’ on the counter. The front window also received Halloween ‘treat’-ment, with skeletons, bats, cobwebs, witches cauldron and broomstick on display. Spokesperson Leanne Gifford says they wanted to attract a bit of attention to the dairy consult- ants’ company and the idea started through want- ing to utilise the large front window. “We are actually shifting across the road into Carlton Street in about a month’s time and we won’t have the same great window space to use there. It’s just a bit of fun to celebrate before we shift premises.” HALLOWEEN HISTORY The word ‘Halloween’ actually has its origins in the Catholic Church.
