Volunteer Rules:
- Bring candy or treats (typically around 200+ children)
- No scaring children
- Non-scary costumes
- Be prepared to help out kids who may wish to leave or not know where to go next
- Be early to get to your spot (3:30 p.m.) and be prepared to help clean up your area at 6:00 when the trick or treating ends
- Have fun!
