'Trick or Treating' Safety Tips

Happy Halloween from the Town of Snowmass Village! The Snowmass Village Police Department would like to remind parents and 'Trick or Treaters' there are a few simple things you can do to make sure your Halloween night is safe and not too spooky:

Wear bright clothes or carry lights so you can be easily seen.
Put electronic devices away and be attentive, especially when crossing the street.
Drive extra carefully and slow.
'Trick or Treat' in groups and/or with adults - never alone.

Have fun, be safe, and don't eat too much candy!
