Local Trick-or-Treat Hours Set

Despite advice to the contrary from the Centers for Disease Control, trick-or-treating is expected to happen across the Copper Country tomorrow. While not endorsing the tradition this year, local governments have set their usual trick-or-treating hours for those who choose to participate. In alphabetical order…
• Baraga: 4:00 until 7:00
 • Calumet Township: 5:00 until 8:00
 • Calumet Village: 5:00 until 8:00
 • Hancock: 5:00 until 8:00
 • Houghton: 5:00 until 8:00 – city firefighters will patrol neighborhoods to help ensure safety.
 • Lake Linden: 5:00 until 8:00
 • L’Anse: 5:00 until 7:30
 • Larium: 5:00 until 8:00
 • South Range: 4:00 until 7:00

If you’ll be handing out treats, the CDC recommends…
• Avoid direct contact with trick-or-treaters.
 • Distribute treats outdoors, if possible.
 • Set up a station with individually bagged treats for kids to take.
 • Wash your hands before handling treats.
 • Wear a mask.

If your kids will be trick-or-treating, the CDC recommends…
• Make your cloth mask part of your costume – a costume mask is not a substitute for a cloth mask.
 • Stay at least 6 feet away from others who do not live with you.
 • Bring hand sanitizer with you and use it after touching objects or other people.
 • Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds when you get home and before you eat any treats.

General trick-or-treat safety guidelines for kids include…
• Wear bright, reflective costumes.
• Young children should be accompanied by responsible older children or adults.
• Carry a flashlight.
• Don’t open or eat treats until an adult can review them at home.

Drivers should also be extra alert for trick-or-treaters tomorrow.
