A new event brought the Halloween spirit to downtown Lima.
LPD Officer Eric Mericle, Safety City Program Coordinator, said, “The earliest I’ve ever seen anybody line up was, like, an hour and a half to two hours prior, but it’s, you know, come out. You know, there’s going to be a little bit of a line, but there’s so many people passing out various different things, not only just candy, they may have free gift cards to places. So it’s just going to be a fun, fun time.”

SHAWNEE TOWNSHIP, OH (WLIO) - Many neighborhoods around Lima were full of characters and creatures Thursday evening for Trick or Treat.
They may be too young to go trick or treat, but there are some kids at the Cleveland Clinic who are getting into the Halloween spirit. The babies in the neonatal intensive care unit are enjoying their costumes for their first Halloween. Their parents and caregivers were the ones who dressed them up as a caterpillar, cow, zebra, and owl. Several of the crocheted hats the babies wore were handmade by the grandmother of a former NICU baby.
Halloween is an exciting time for the kids, but safety officials have some tips to keep all your little trick-or-treaters safe. The most important piece of advice is to "see and be seen." Make sure your child can see through their costume and that they can be seen by motorists. Reflective clothing is always a plus, and you can have your little ghoul or goblin carry a flashlight with them. Make sure to remind them to use the buddy system, stay with their group, communicate where they will be, and never dart out in between cars. Don't forget that Mom or Dad needs to check out the candy haul when everyone is back home.
