Safety Tips

• Turn on your porch light if you want to be visited by Trick-or-Treaters
• Trick-or-Treaters should only visit houses/apartments of people they know
• Children should use sidewalks where available and walk, not run, between houses
• Use caution when crossing streets and only cross at intersections when clear of traffic
• Costumes should be light and bright so they are clearly visible to motorists and it is suggested that Trick-or-Treaters carry a flashlight
• Parents should inspect candy and goodies before allowing children to consume
• Motorists should be vigilant and extra alert during Trick-or-Treat hours
• Know which friend(s) your child is traveling with if not accompanied by an adult
• The Bolingbrook Police Department will have additional officers patrolling during the posted hours.
• The Bolingbrook Fire Department advises using battery operated lights (not candles) to illuminate Jack-O’lanterns to avoid any contact with flammable materials if the pumpkin gets knocked over

Mayor Mary and the Village of Bolingbrook Board of Trustees wish all residents a Happy and Safe Halloween!
