Downtown trick or treating is Saturday

By Correne Martin

Trick or treat hours in Prairie du Chien are from 5 to 8 p.m., on Monday, Oct. 31, as set by the Prairie du Chien Police Department. Sirens will blow at the beginning and end of the time period.

Residents are asked to leave a light on if they would like trick or treaters to stop at their houses.

Also, on Saturday, Oct. 29, from 2 to 4 p.m., costumed children are invited to visit boo-tiful downtown Prairie du Chien businesses for trick or treating. This early opportunity to visit the downtown businesses has been a tradition in the past.

Police Chief Chad Abram provided a few safety tips for local kids planning to enjoy the evening around town.

•Parents or grandparents are recommended to go trick or treating with their kids.

•Wear reflective clothing or have some type of lighting that makes you visible to others.

•Do not approach houses where the lights are off or suspicious individuals walking around the community.

•Follow basic pedestrian and traffic laws while trick or treating. Cross the street only at a controlled crossing or crosswalk at an intersection.

•Parents should check over the bag of goodies at the end of the night to ensure all the treats are safe for consumption.
