Stay Safe While Trick or Treating

(Undated) – Authorities are reminding kids and parents of some simple things to keep in mind to stay safe while Trick or Treating on Friday. The little ghouls and goblins are reminded to stay off the roadway unless crossing the street and always cross the street at crosswalks. A responsible adult should accompany children while trick-or-treating. Flashlights and/or reflective tape should be used so drivers can see trick-or-treaters. Children should never enter a home or an apartment building unless accompanied by an adult. Lastly, visits should be restricted to homes with porch lights on.
