Trick or Treat
DATE: October 30, 2023
Due to the parade's planned date falling on Halloween, the town's customary "trick or treating" events will take place on
Monday, October 30th, according to Mayor Maurice B. Hill.
We want children to come to the parade with their families on Halloween but still enjoy the time-honored tradition of trick-or-treating.”
The parade steps off at 7:00 p.m. at Highland Parkway and Main Street continuing south on Rt. 166 and turning onto Washington Street.
Toms River Fire Co. #1 officials said registration takes place on the day of the parade only at the
Henry Runco Firehouse on Robbins Street, between Washington and Water Streets, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
There are NEW Divisions, according to Toms River Fire Co. #1.
Some guidelines:
NO walkers in a motorized division
NOTHING to be thrown off any motorized vehicles.
You can place your chairs out Tuesday morning the day of the parade as long as they are secured down and not flying around.
According to Police Chief Mitch Little, it's crucial for parents and drivers to follow a few safety precautions while trick-or-treating.
“On October 30th, motorists should be aware and drive with extra caution.
Be on the alert for excited youngsters, whose vision may be obstructed by masks, darting out into traffic. We also advise parents to accompany young children, always carry a flashlight for safety, stay on sidewalks or as close to the curb as possible and only go to houses where the porch lights are on.”
While there is no official curfew in Toms River, Chief Little says that all trick-or-treaters will be asked to be off township streets by 9:00 p.m.
