Trick-or-treat times set for those participating

Trick-or-treat hours have been set throughout the area as follows for Saturday, Oct. 31:

— 1 to 4 p.m., Florence County;

— 3 to 5 p.m., Town of Dunbar, Town of Pembine, Hermansville, Powers;

— 4 to 7 p.m., Iron Mountain, Kingsford, Breitung Township, Quinnesec, Norway, Norway Township, Crystal Falls, Iron River, Iron County, Niagara, Wis.

“It should be noted that trick or treat is not sponsored or necessarily promoted by the city of Iron Mountain or the city of Kingsford,” said Ed Mattson, Iron Mountain director of police and fire services, and Brian Metras, Kingsford public safety director. “Each year we set hours so that this activity is done orderly and without confusion.”

The departments also released some details on how to stay safe trick-or-treating this year during the pandemic.

Some tips include staying home and/or not handing out candy if sick, avoid group parties or gatherings, wear a face mask (not a Halloween costume mask) that covers both mouth and nose, and washing hands frequently or using hand sanitizer often.
