Alllllllllrighty folks! The witching hour approaches!

Quick reminders

Streets close to traffic from 5pm to 9pm - but if you need to get in or out (residents and guests) you'll be able to.

The route is any place you want to start going to any place you want to finish - the orange circled zone will be closed to traffic to facilitate family-friendly, pedestrian-safe trick-or-treating, but you can go as far outside the zone as you like.

If you are downhill/outside the zone and want to participate, Ridgeway Park oval is a great place to gather - or you can come join us at 28 Lessing, right near Edgewood; look for the fire pit.

Everybody have fun, take lots of pictures and tag us!

Happy Halloween West Orange!

Dan, Michelle and Blaze Ogden

Just a friendly reminder from your intrepid parade planning staff (AKA โ€œDan Ogdenโ€).

First and foremost:
Everybody have fun tonight!

Info:
The paradeโ€™s road closures will begin at 5pm and last until 9pm. Map attached.

You do not need to follow any particular path or start at any particular time, though youโ€™ll find more families with younger kids starting around 5 at Ridgeway Park.

There is no specific event at Ridgeway Park, but again, around 5, youโ€™ll start seeing a lot of families with younger kids (less than ~10 years old).

If you need to drive to the area, parking anywhere on Ridgeway or just before any of the roadblocks will give you the most level access to the route. Please be respectful of your neighbors and allow them enough room to exit and enter their driveways and walkways if you park in front of them.

You do not need to limit your trick or treating to the route - youโ€™ll find plenty of trick or treating all around town.

Lights out = No treats here, please do not disturb.

Iโ€™ll have notifications on my phone turned off during the parade, but will be available at 28 Lessing Road if you have any questions or need assistance, along with treats for the kids and bottled water for moms/dads. There will also be visible police presence near most roadblocks if you need emergency services.

And finally;

Porch Lights Out = No Treats Here

Parents, please ensure your kids know to bypass homes with their porch lights out. This means the household is not distributing treats - whether they have run out, or are otherwise engaged, or are simply not observing/participating.

Please respect your neighbors with dark porch lights by directing your children to other homes with lit porches.

And of course, not everyone is here on Facebook - so parents and kids should also be on the lookout for obstructed doors or other signs indicating that the house is not distributing treats for whatever reason.

Thank you & Happy Halloween!
