Sweet Treats & Halloween Safety

Halloween is just around the corner. Preston Development and the builders of South Lakes, (D R Horton, Impact Builder Guide and M/I Homes) would like to invite all of the children of South Lakes to stop by all three sales centers on Monday, October 31^st between the hours of 3 to 5 pm. We have a special Halloween Treat for you.

I did a little research to see if the town’s website had any “official” trick-or-treating hours and here’s what their website reports. They also had some great safety tips and listed some fun activities happening around town.

The Town of Fuquay-Varina does not recognize an official day to celebrate Halloween. Traditionally, Halloween is on October 31^st which falls on a Monday this year, but it’s up to parents to decide when their children will trick or treat. Here are a few safety tips to keep the evening fun and safe:

•  A responsible adult should accompany children at all times.
•  Only go to homes with a porch light on and never enter a home or car for a treat.
•  Pedestrian injuries are common on Halloween. Children should stay in groups; Remain on well-lit streets; Use crosswalks if available; Never cross between parked cars or out driveways.
•  Don’t assume the right of way. Just because one car stops doesn’t mean others will!
•  Call the Fuquay-Varina Police at 552-3191 to report any problems.
