Halloween Trick-or-Treat - October 31st from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm
Absecon's Trick-or-Treat will take place on October 31st from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
Chief Laughlin would like to remind everyone that there will be increased foot traffic, as parents and children will be out visiting our neighborhoods. Please reduce speeds in all residential areas, especially during this time period.
Parents need to remember to inspect all candy and goodies before anyone consumes their treats.
Due to Safety concerns surrounding Trick-or-Treat, Morton Avenue between Upland Avenue and Crestview Avenue will be closed starting at 5:45 pm and will re-open at approximately 8:00 pm or when the streets are clear of pedestrian traffic. There will be no traffic allowed to enter or exit the closed area during those hours.
The Pitney Park Sports Comlex Area off Morton Avenue will be available for parking during the event.
We recognize that this may be an inconvenience for homeowners, but hope you understand that Chief Laughlin has made this decision with the safety of the families and children participating in the Trick-or-Treat event in mind.
If you have family or friends planning to visit during this time, please make sure to communicate this information.
Our goal is to maintain a safe environment for the residents and visitors of Absecon. Thank you all for your cooperation and enjoy this special holiday!
