Please note: There is no Trick-or-Treating on Post after the Halloween Parade. Trick-or-Treating on Post is scheduled for 31 October 2020 from 1700-2000 for Carlisle Barracks residents; CAC holders; and pass holders only.
Guidelines for parents and trick-or-treaters:
If you're sick, stay home.
- Adhere to social-distancing guidelines by standing six feet apart leaving distance between them and people walking the other direction.
- Have kids wear a face mask. (Many costumes could easily incorporate one.)
- Have a parent accompany children, regardless of age, to hold them accountable with mask wearing and social distancing.
- Carry a flashlight and be sure children have reflective clothing.
- Avoid congregating around doorsteps and porches.
- Use hand sanitizer after receiving candy from each house.
- Do not eat candy while trick-or-treating — parents should make certain hands are clean before kids start touching their faces and eating candy.
- Make certain kids wash their hands as soon as they get home.
- Have kids remove their costumes and shower.
