As always, the safety of our community is a top priority. To help ensure a safe Halloween for everyone, here are a few safety tips to keep in mind:

• While driving a vehicle on Halloween night, please drive slowly and be aware of children who may unexpectedly wander into the roadway.
• Always inspect all candy and other treats before allowing your children to eat them.
• Make sure to pack a flashlight or glow sticks to help with visibility in the dark.
• Children should walk along the side of the road and avoid running into the street.
• Only visit homes with exterior lights turned on, as these are the homes welcoming trick-or-treaters.
• If you are not accompanying your children, make sure you know their planned route. It’s always best to join your children if possible.
• The most important safety tip is to use common sense and follow your best judgment.

The Lebanon Police Department, Lebanon Fire Department, and Lebanon Recreation wishes everyone a safe and fun Halloween!
