Brownstown will have residential trick-or-treating from 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 31.

The Brownstown Town Council unanimously approved the date and time during a meeting Monday night.

The county seat joins the Jackson County communities of Crothersville, Medora and Seymour in offering trick-or-treating from 6 to 8 p.m. on Halloween.

Officials of each community ask people to take precautions to stay safe, including maintaining social distance, using a face mask that covers the nose and mouth and keeping hands sanitized throughout the night.

Those who have symptoms of COVID-19 or have recently been exposed to the virus should not go trick-or-treating, and people should not hand out candy if there is a positive case in their household. Also, trick-or-treaters should only go to homes of people they know and trust.
