Yosemite Valley Trick-or-Treating Safety Plan

Halloween is less than two weeks away, and Yosemite Valley kiddos will be trick-or-treating. Your help is needed to make it a safe one! YoParents are asking the community to adhere to the following guidelines this year:

  • If you’d like to pass out treats to the kids, please leave your porch light on or Halloween lights/decorations on so they know you’re safely prepared and ready for them.
  • If you do choose to pass out treats, please find a way to do it from 6 feet away–there are some clever methods on the internet using PVC pipe! You could also use a (clean) trash picker-upper.
  • If you cannot find a way to distribute treats from 6 feet away, please wear a face covering over your mouth and nose.
  • Do not allow the kids to grab their own treat out of a container.
  • Please limit the number of people distributing the treats from your container to one person if possible.
  • Please only keep the kids at the door for a minute or two to limit interaction.

Thank you so much for helping allow these kiddos to safely continue a fun childhood tradition.
