General Safety:

1.       Licensed Drivers: Don’t drive while under the influence of any mind altering substance; better yet, don’t ingest any mind altering illicit substances at anytime.

2.       Only trick or treat in known neighborhoods that are familiar and safe.

3.       Trick or treat in groups. All children should have a responsible adult such as a parent accompanying them.

4.       Bring an operational and higher powered flashlight for use as needed to light up any darkened sidewalks or areas.

5.       Take advantage of city sponsored Halloween events for a safe alternative venue for children to celebrate in.

6.       Don’t open the door to your home if you are concerned about your safety and who's on the other side. *Call 911 to summon police or fire department personnel for any urgent concerns regarding health and safety.
