Happy Halloween!

Beaumont RCMP and Beaumont Community Peace officers wish you a safe and fun Halloween. Below are some tips to keep when you are out trick or treating. 

Safety tips for children:

• Wear brightly-coloured costumes.
• Wear makeup, rather than a mask.
• Use a flashlight.
• Walk on sidewalks.
• Never go into anyone’s house or vehicle.
• Travel in a group or with a guardian.
• Have an adult check your candy. 

Safety tips for homeowners:

• Keep porch doors clear and well lit.
• Only pass out commercially-wrapped candy and snacks.
• Keep your pets inside, as they maybe scared by children in costumes.
