ATHENS-The City of Athens is not requiring any changes for trick-or-treating with Halloween falling on a Sunday.

 

However, Athens Police Chief Floyd Johnson is cautioning motorists to be vigilant throughout the weekend.

 

“Some neighborhoods, homeowner associations and churches may opt to have trunk-or-treat or similar events in their area on Friday, Saturday or Sunday,” Johnson said. “I urge motorists to pay attention all weekend, especially on neighborhood streets, because kids get excited and may not look before darting into the street. Let’s all work together to have a safe and enjoyable Halloween.”

 

Athens Police Department, Athens Fire and Rescue and the Limestone County Sheriff’s Office will host the annual Trunk-or-Treat on The Square on Halloween from 4-6 p.m. on Marion Street. Trick-or-treaters will walk through the line to visit each agency.
