In addition, if your little goblins may venture into the street, make sure they use caution and have lights. And always check treats before they eat. (You know, the basics!)Trick or treat? That is the big question. We encourage you to have a safe Halloween and follow these reminders from the CDPHE.
People should not participate in any in-person activities, including handing out candy, IF they:
🔸Are sick, especially with COVID-19 symptoms.
🔸Have been exposed to someone with COVID-19 and are currently in the quarantine period.
🔸Have recently tested positive for COVID-19 and are currently in the isolation period.

Wear a mask that fully covers your nose and mouth, wash your hands frequently, and keep your distance whenever you are out in public or around people who are not a part of your household.
