Happy Halloween from the DSS HR, Legal, and Director's Office teams! We look forward to this day every year, and it's always so fun to see what the kiddos decide to dress up as. Spiderman and Paw Patrol were especially popular this year! If you’re continuing the fun tonight make sure to follow these three safety tips to make sure your little ghouls have a fun and safe Halloween night: 🎃 Check their treats: Avoid homemade treats and only eat factory-wrapped candy. 👻 Stay with a group: Children under 12 should have adult supervision. 🎃 Be Visible: Use reflective tape, glow stick, or flashlights to be visible to drivers, and always remember to look both ways.
