2017 Halloween Safety Tips

Halloween is meant to be a fun time, but it only remains that way if you follow key safety tips. With many trick-or-treat times starting in the afternoon, it’s best to go out when there’s still daylight and you are easily observable. Wear glow sticks or carry a flashlight to make yourself more visible at dusk and night, and always cross at designated crosswalks. Though drivers should expect to see you, it’s safest to assume the won’t.

Never eat candy that appears to be tampered with, and throw out homemade food. Always remember to travel in groups, and with at least one responsible adult.
