To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please take a moment to review the following guidelines for participating:

Trick-or-Treating Guidelines 

1. Stay Visible: Wear reflective clothing or use glow sticks and flashlights to ensure drivers can see you.
2. Costume Safety: Ensure costumes are easy to walk in, and masks or accessories do not obstruct vision. Avoid sharp or dangerous props.
3. Respect Neighbors: Only visit homes with outdoor lights on, as this signals participation.
4. Be Courteous: Say “Thank you” after receiving treats, and remember to be polite to fellow trick-or-treaters and homeowners.
5. Candy Check: Parents, please inspect your child’s candy before they enjoy it.
6. Traffic Caution: Use sidewalks whenever possible, cross streets at corners, and be mindful of traffic.
7. Weather: Keep an eye on the forecast and dress appropriately for the evening.

Homeowners 

• If you wish to participate in handing out treats, please turn on your outdoor lights.
• Consider offering non-candy treats or allergen-free options to accommodate children with dietary restrictions.

Let’s all work together to ensure a safe, fun, and spooky Halloween for everyone in our community!
