Halloween Fun Continues on October 31!

And of course, the beloved Kennett Square Borough tradition continues with Halloween trick-or-treating on Saturday, October 31, from 6:00–8:00 PM!

With Halloween festivities just around the corner, Kennett Collaborative partnered with Chief Holdsworth of the Kennett Square Borough Police Department to share a few important safety reminders for families.

As Chief Holdsworth reminds families, “a lot of traffic comes through, we are a densely populated community, cross the street with your children.” He also encourages families to take a few simple precautions: “kids should have glowing or reflective material on them” and “parents, please don’t let your kids taste or sample any of the candy before you have had a chance to look at it.”

Whether you’re joining us for Candy Trail or heading out for trick-or-treating on Halloween night, remember to stay alert, keep children close, and be mindful of your surroundings.
