Halloween can be a fun and exciting time for children. Following a few safety tips will help to ensure that it is a safe experience.
-Give each child a flashlight to carry to make them more visible.
– If you choose to use a mask, make sure it is one that allows the child to see and breathe easily.
– Make sure that costumes are loose enough to be worn over warm clothing, but not so baggy or long that children can trip over their costumes.
– Pick brightly coloured costumes that can be clearly seen by motorists. Add reflective tape to the costume to increase visibility.

Motorist please drive slow and watch out for children tomorrow evening as they trick or treat!
