Community Safe Trick 'R Treat at The Downtown Square & Plaza!
TREAT STATIONS sponsored by Chamber member businesses and organizations will be set up along the sidewalks around the Downtown Square. There will also be a FUN ZONE in the Plaza parking lot featuring games and activities for the children.
Our first priority is to keep all the children SAFE! In order to do that most effectively, the entire area around the downtown square will be blocked off to all vehicle traffic at 5:00 PM and will reopen at 7:00 PM. The Stephenville Police Department will have officers stationed around the downtown area to let vehicles out of the blocked area as needed. See map below.
NO PETS (other than service dogs) WILL BE ALLOWED AT THIS EVENT.
Street closures will begin at 4:30 PM starting with side streets around the downtown area and plaza.
Washington and Graham Streets will be closed at 4:50 PM.
College Street will be open until 5:00 PM to allow for early voting access to courthouse.
Health Safety Protocols
- Hand sanitizer stations will be set up around the downtown area.
- This year, we will be assigning specific booth spots for each business participating with more distance between each table to help spread the line out.
- To reduce contact, we are asking treat givers to drop the treat in each child’s bag or bucket instead of allowing the children to put their hands in the candy bucket.
- The Chamber will have masks and gloves available.
