Shorewood Trick Or Treat Date + Safety Tips

SHOREWOOD, WI — Shorewood's 2021 trick or treat has been scheduled to take place 4-7 p.m. on Oct. 31.

The annual Halloween celebration was canceled last year in Shorewood on account of the pandemic. Patch previously reported that the Village Board decided to cancel a scheduled trick or treat time on account of the pandemic.

A year has passed, and although the pandemic is not over, trick or treating is set to make a return in Shorewood. For this year's candy-gathering festivity, the Village has announced it is working with the North Shore Health Department to ensure everyone's safety.

Here are some tips from the CDC for a safe trick or treat:

• Wear a mask. Costume masks are not a substitute for other masks. Masks should not be worn by those under two.
• Wash your hands and sanitize them in between houses.
• Stay six feet away from anyone who doesn't live with you.
