Trick-Or-Treating In Coventry: Residents Without Power Not Sure What To Do

There's scary, and there's SCARY. Trick-or-treating without light of any kind (street lights, house lights, etc.) may be a bit much. So those residents without power are wondering what to do?

One idea is to travel to a neighborhood with power. Another is to postpone Halloween for a day or two or three. Coventry Police Chief and EMA Director Bryan Volpe stated Tuesday that Halloween activities will not be postponed at the town level because of Hurricane Sandy cleanup.

Gov. Lincoln Chafee issued a press release encouraging caution tonight. 

"Our state is still dealing with the effects of Hurricane Sandy. These include extensive damage to roadways and sidewalks, fallen trees, downed power lines, and widespread power outages. Anyone out – whether driving or on foot – in areas with debris and without power must exercise extreme caution and vigilance."

What do you think – should everything proceed as usual or should we postpone Halloween until power's restored?
