Halloween 2016
Be Careful of children driving home this weekend. Halloween is fun for children to trick or treat. The costumes are sometimes dark so that the children “appear” scary. The dark costumes are difficult to see after sunset. Some smaller kids get excited and run across the street without looking. Please be careful while driving at night.
