COVID-19 NEWS ICON

The Brevard Police Department has spoken to representatives of the neighborhoods that have traditionally given out candy on Halloween and suggested not doing traditional trick-or-treat for this year.  Chief Phil Harris said, “Transylvania County residents have done a great job of keeping the spread of Covid-19 under control.  Every resident deserves credit for this. Halloween is a special time of year for our kids, but the risk of doing traditional trick-or-treat activities is too great to ignore.  We are asking that parents seek other activities and options that are more easily managed than traditional trick-or-treating.  We will not close the streets as we have in the past to discourage these activities.   The risk of spreading Covid-19 is too great to ignore.”
