Tips for a Safe and Spooktacular Halloween!

Halloween is the beginning of an exciting and festive holiday season, which should be full of treats. Below are some safety tips you should remember so you don't get tricked!                                

With Halloween falling on a Sunday this year, many children will be out walking while it is dark, making it harder for drivers to see them. We recommend these safety tips for parents:

• Accompany children on their Halloween route.
• Walk on sidewalks and cross the street safely.
• Carry a flashlight or glow stick to be visible.
• Apply reflective tape to the front and back of the costume so your child will be visible to cars.
• Use face make-up instead of a mask so children can see easily.
• Make sure to stay at the door of a home and never go inside.
