Halloween trick-or-treat time for the City of Ashland is set for Thursday, October 31st from 5:00-7:00pm — rain or shine!

Trick-or-treating in the City of Ashland occurs each year on the Thursday before/of Halloween, which is chosen so as to not conflict with Friday night High School football and other weekend activities. The 5:00-7:00pm time frame is to protect our children—even with reflective costumes and flashlights, the potential for harm to a child is too high to risk having the event later in the evening when it is dark. This event is for the children and we want it to be a safe, fun event for them.

If you wish to have trick-or-treaters visit your home, please turn on the outside porch light. Trick-or-treaters, please respect porch lights turned off as a sign of residents choosing to not participate.
