Halloween Safety & Trick-or-Treating Guide for Park Tower Residents
Spooky season is here! Whether your little ghouls and goblins are exploring our hallways or heading out to trick-or-treat around the neighborhood, here are a few simple tips to help everyone have a safe and fun Halloween evening.
Trick-or-Treating in the Building
-
Participating Units: If you plan on welcoming little visitors to your door, a list of participating households will be available at the lobby front desk starting Friday October 30th by 4pm.
-
Accompany Our Youngest Guests: All minor children should be accompanied by a parent or guardian while navigating building hallways and elevators.
-
Be Mindful of Lobby & Elevators: It can be busy on Halloween evening. Please be patient, keep groups tidy near the elevators, and watch out for costumes with long capes or bulky props in tight spaces.
Trick-or-Treating in the Edgewater Neighborhood
-
Light Up the Night: Chicago autumn evenings get dark quickly! Outfit costumes with reflective tape, glow sticks, or hand out flashlights so drivers can easily spot kids along the sidewalk.
-
Stick to Well-Lit Streets: Stay on familiar, well-populated neighborhood blocks with good sidewalk lighting. Avoid cutting through unlit alleys or unfamiliar pathways.
-
Cross Safely: Always cross streets at designated crosswalks and intersections. Remind kids never to dart out from between parked cars.
-
Inspect Treats at Home: Establish the golden rule that all candy and treats wait until you are safely back home to be inspected. Discard any opened, unwrapped, damaged or suspicious items.
Have a wonderful, safe, and happy Halloween, everyone!
