Glenview Halloween Hours 2012
The Village of Glenview has set trick-or-treating hours from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 31.
The Village of Glenview has released the following Halloween tips.
To keep Glenview’s smallest ghouls and ghosts safe this Halloween, the Village has set trick-or-treating hours from 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 31. To make sure your kids are safe as they haunt the neighborhood, keep these tips in mind:
- Accompany your children (or send an older sibling) and make sure they don’t enter
anyone’s home without your permission. - Use makeup instead of a mask, so your child’s view is not obstructed.
- Make a trick-or-treat route map for your children.
- Make sure kids cross only at corners — and look in all directions first. Remind them to use
sidewalks or walk facing traffic so approaching cars can be seen. - Caution them against crossing the street between parked cars, where drivers can’t see them.
- Warn children not to eat any goodies until you’ve had a chance to inspect them. When in doubt, throw it out.

Yet another example of government trying to take the place of parents. But thwarted by being out of touch with reality.
All the tips are good ones. One would hope most parents know these practices. But, since Halloween falls on a Wednesday, most people who work (especially in the city) won't be home until 7:00pm (the designated ending time.) Maybe the Nannies can collect from other Nannies? That way it comports with the times set by the Nannie state?

Every year I have the same observation. Our schools aren't even dismissed until 3:30. That means busses and parents driving on the roads during the first hour of these Village hours.
Change the hours to start later, say, from 4:30 until 8:30.
