A few safety reminders from our department to ensure a safe and fun evening:

• Trick-or-treaters need to see and be seen: Use face makeup instead of masks which can make seeing difficult. Give trick-or-treaters a flashlight to light their way. Add reflective tape to costumes and trick-or-treat bags. If possible, have everyone wear light-colored clothing.

• Stay in Groups: Trick-or-treat with friends or family.

• Only Visit Well-Lit Houses: Look for houses with porch lights on.

• Cross the Street at Marked Crosswalks: Use designated pedestrian crossings.

• Be Aware of Your Surroundings: Pay attention to your environment and avoid dark or unfamiliar areas.

• Check Candy Before Eating: Inspect treats for any signs of tampering.

• Have Fun and Be Safe!
