			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Grand Ledge trick-or-treat hours are</p>
<h6>6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., Sunday, October 31, 2010.</h6>
<p>We encourage residents wishing to handout Halloween candy to turn on their front porch light and we also encourage trick-or-treaters to respect those properties whose porch lights are not turned on.</p>
<p>The City of Grand Ledge wants to keep its children safe.  Please follow this advice this Halloween:</p>
<ul>
<li>Children should be accompanied by a parent or large group of friends while trick-or-treating.</li>
<li>Children should trick-or-treat close to their home.</li>
<li>Children should carry a flashlight or glow stick while trick-or-treating at night.</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t pet strange   animals while trick or treating, your costume  or other&#8217;s costumes may irritate or confuse pets.</li>
<li>Drivers should exhibit extra caution while driving on Halloween.</li>
<li>A parent should inspect Halloween candy before eating.  If any candy is open, do not eat it.</li>
</ul>
<p>Please have a fun and safe Halloween!</p>
