- Do not participate if you or your child feels sick or is at increased risk of complications due to an underlying medical condition or compromised immune system.
- Avoid rubber or plastic costume masks that may make it difficult to see or breathe.
- Trick-or-Treat only during the times designated by local authorities.
- Trick-or-Treat in small groups.
- Stay within your own neighborhood whenever possible.
