When Are Trick-Or-Treating Hours in Geneva, IL?

The city of Geneva wants all little ghosts, witches and goblins to have a fun and safe Halloween experience this year.

So the city is recommending children and their parents trick-or-treat in their neighborhoods between 3 and 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 31.

The downtown business community will again be offering free treats to children from 2 to 5 p.m. Oct. 31.

For those looking for a weekend option, Geneva Commons will have trick-or-treating from 3 to 4:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 27.

In nearby Batavia, police suggest the trick-or-treat hours of 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 31.

Here are some safety tips for your little ones:

• Walk in small groups, not alone.

• Bicycles and skateboards should be left at home.

• Younger children should be accompanied by adults.

• Costumes should not restrict vision.

• Use stick-on reflective material generously.

• Carry a flashlight if out after dark.

• Only give or accept wrapped or packaged candy.

• Parents should examine candy carefully before children are allowed to eat it.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!
