🎃👻 Community Reminder: Trick-or-Treating Safety Tips! 👻🎃

Halloween is almost here — and our community is getting ready for a night full of fun, costumes, and candy! 🍬 As you head out to celebrate, please take a moment to review these important safety reminders to help keep everyone safe this spooky season. 🧡

🚸 Stranger Danger & Tricky People
Children should never enter a home or car for treats.
Older kids should travel in groups and use a “buddy system” to look out for one another.
Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement right away.
Make sure your child knows when and how to call 9-1-1 if they get lost or need help.

🏡 Prepare Your Home for Trick-or-Treaters
Clear porches and walkways of tripping hazards like hoses, toys, and bikes.
Sweep away wet leaves to prevent slips and falls.
Check outdoor lights and replace any burned-out bulbs.
Secure pets so they don’t accidentally jump on or scare trick-or-treaters.

🚦 Halloween Street Smarts
Halloween night can be one of the most dangerous for young pedestrians — let’s change that!
Always accompany young children while trick-or-treating.
Encourage older kids to plan their route, stay with friends, and carry flashlights or glow sticks.
Stay alert and avoid distractions like phones or headphones.
Cross at crosswalks, not mid-block, and never assume cars will stop.
Stick to well-lit streets and visit homes with porch lights on.

Let’s all do our part to make Halloween safe, fun, and memorable for every child in our community! 🧡🎃
