Tips for Trick
or Treat
Remind your children of street safety. Kids will be wearing costumes making it hard to see.
Organize small groups to walk with. As it gets dark its hard to recognize who is who out there. Why not start with some friendly faces.
Bring:
-
flash light – the sun sets at 18:10 and it gets dark quickly
-
water – kids crave water after sampling their treats
-
bag/basket – to put the candies in.
Questions and Answers
Q: Do we need to all start at the same point on the map?
A: No. You do need to come to CHECK IN to receive your OFFICIAL HOUSE MAP and “ticket” to get into the Bunker.
Q: Why are the tickets more this year?
A: This year we have decided to pilot an all inclusive event. This means that parents do not need to purchase the candy. As well as with any event we have costs such as venue hire and materials.
Q: This year are we donating sweets?
A: No this year we have decided to make things a bit easier for you and we will be purchasing the sweets. This is why the price of this year’s Trick or Treat has increased.
Q: Can we visit houses not on the map?
A: Only visit the houses on the map that have agreed to participate in our event. This event is being mindful of the rest of the community.
