When Is Trick-Or-Treat In Lakewood?

Residents should expect costumed kiddies on October 31. Here's everything you need to know to get ready for Halloween.

LAKEWOOD, OH — Lakewood's official trick-or-treat will be held October 31 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Before costumed kiddies hit the streets, parents and residents should review safety tips and be cautious when driving on or roaming the roads.

After announcing the time of the citywide trick-or-treat Lakewood officials offered three safety tips for parents and residents: carry a flashlight if you're escorting children during the night, residents should remind children to walk, not run, up and down steps, and drivers should proceed slowly through the city.

The Cuyahoga County Office of Emergency Management offered more extensive safety tips as Halloween approaches. The full list of the office's advice can be found online.
