Borough to Provide Safety Support for
Traditional Halloween Activities
Dear Residents:
Please be advised that in
response to the recent influx of luring incidents in Bergen County and the
severe weather conditions predicted for the next few days, the Borough of Glen
Rock is implementing an 8 p.m. curfew on October 30, 2012. The curfew will be
strictly enforced. Additionally, the Borough strongly recommends that parents
implement an 8 p.m. curfew for Halloween night.
As always, the Borough
frowns on customary "Goosey Night" or "Mischief Night" practices. Please advise
children accordingly: The deliberate destruction of someone else's property is a
criminal offense on any night of the year and will be treated as
such.
The Glen Rock Police
Department is taking a proactive approach to address these serious issues and
encourages parents to do the same. While the Glen Rock Police Department will
have extra patrols out on both nights, there is no substitute for a parent's
vigilant gaze.
Parents can protect their
children by walking with them as they trick or treat this Halloween and by
making sure that minors are attended. It is important to know where your
children are going and who they will be with. Talk to your children about
strangers and how to react if approached. An inch of precaution can save miles
in heartache.
Finally, please report any
suspicious individuals or behavior to the police immediately. Dial 911
for emergencies and (201) 652-3800 for non-emergencies. Time is of the absolute
essence in these situations.
For more information and
tips on how to teach your children to recognize and react to dangerous
situations and strangers, please visit http://www.ncpc.org/topics/violent-crime-and-personal-safety/strangers.
Thank you for your
attention to this matter. This Halloween, be safe and be well - well informed,
well prepared, and well connected.
Please stay tuned for an important message about storm
preparation.

No offense but no thanks. I don't know how you found me but if you read my blog, I think you'd understand I have no interest in the subject matter of your blog. Appreciate the invite. Good luck,
