Practice good manners when you Trick-Or-Treat!

What do your children need to know before they trick-or-treat?

To plan for this festive day, we're establishing some general ground rules for those on the "receiving" end. 

• Stay on the walk-way to the front door. You don't want to mow down your neighbors prize mums.
• Ring the door bell twice, if no response go to another home.
• Homes that are dark, should not be approached.  They are either not at home or do not wish to participate in Halloween.
• Carry a flash light at all times so cars can see you and you can see where you're walking.  And parents can add reflective tape to costumes and candy containers.
• Be courteous when someone answers the door, say  "Trick-or-Treat" nicely.
• Be sure to say, "Thank you" after receiving your treat.
• Never go into someone's home.
• Only eat candy that is wrapped.
• Time to start Halloween is when it becomes dark outside and not past 9:00 p.m.
• Don't rifle through the candy to find your favorite treat. Take one treat unless told otherwise.

                              

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
