Keep Halloween Fun & Fire-Free! 

Before your little ones head out, remember these quick safety tips from the Royal Oak Fire Department:

• Use glow sticks or battery candles instead of real flames in pumpkins.
• Keep decorations—like hay, cornstalks & paper—away from heat or open flames.
• Avoid long, trailing costumes & make sure masks don’t block vision.
• Keep exits clear of decorations.
• Carry a flashlight or glow stick for visibility.
• Test smoke alarms & remind kids how to stop, drop & roll!

Have a frightfully safe night, Royal Oak!
