A reminder to all those planning to have fun on Halloween Night.
Children should be cautioned to report any suspicious incidents immediately to a parent and/or police officer.
TRICK OR TREATING
A parent or adult should always accompany young children to the door of every home they approach. Do not permit the use of bicycles, roller-blades, or skateboards. Use flashlights with fresh batteries for better vision. Enforce the use of reflective clothing. Remain on well-lit streets and sidewalks. Never cut across yards or use alleys.
TRAFFIC SAFETY
Drive slowly. Always walk, do not run. Cross the street as a group in an established crosswalk. Do not use any mask or item that will limit eyesight before crossing a street. Don't assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, does not mean others will.
AFTER TRICK OR TREATING
All treats are to be thoroughly examined by adults. Discard candy if package already opened. Small, hard pieces of candy can be a choking hazard for young children. A good meal before trick-or-treating will discourage children from eating too many Halloween treats.
As a reminder, the use of Silly String is prohibited on Hollywood Boulevard on Halloween night.
Everyone have an enjoyable evening, but more importantly be safe.
