Ross Changes 2019 Halloween Trick-Or-Treat Hours

ROSS TOWNSHIP, PA - With heavy rains and high winds forecast for Halloween, Ross has changed its trick-or-treat time this year. Instead of 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Oct. 31, kids can go door-to-door to get their candy on Nov. 2 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

For a safe trick-0r-treating experience, follow these tips:

• Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape or stickers and, if possible, choose light colors.
• Choose face paint and makeup instead of masks if possible to reduce the risk obstructing a child's vision.
• Have kids carry flashlights to help them see and be seen by drivers.
• Make sure costumes are the correct size to prevent trips and falls.
• Young children should be supervised by a responsible adult.
• Don't walk on the street. Stay on sidewalks and cross streets when safe at intersections and crosswalks.
