🎃 Happy Halloween from the Piedmont Health District! 👻

We want everyone to have a safe and fun night of trick-or-treating! Here are a few tips to help keep you and your family safe:

🍬 Trick-or-Treating Safety
• Always walk in groups and stay with an adult.
• Use sidewalks whenever possible and cross streets at corners, following traffic signals.
• Carry a flashlight or glow sticks to help you see and be seen.

🍭 Candy Safety
• Wait until you get home to eat your treats so an adult can check them first.
• Only eat candy that’s sealed and in its original wrapper.
• Avoid homemade treats unless you know who made them.

Have a spooktacular Halloween, Piedmont! 🎃🦇
