Above her is text that reads "Halloween Safety With Paisley." In a box next to her, there is text that reads: Wear reflective clothing or things that light up (like glow sticks!) so that cars can see you in the dark! Look both ways before you cross the street! Never go into a stranger’s home! Have your grown up check your candy before you eat it! Don’t go out alone! There is safety in numbers! Have a meet-up spot with your friends or grown up in case you get separated!
Happy Halloween from the staff at Creswell City Hall! We hope your day is safe and fun! We are also still handing out Haunted School Buses until 5pm so feel free to stop on by!

Winterize your ride. Pack a winter safety kit. Include first aid kit, water/food, warm coat, blanket, salt, flashlight/batteries, ice scraper, jumper cables, cell phone charger, shovel. Gas up. Maintain at least 1/2 tank of gas at all times to avoid condensation forming in fuel tank and also to keep warm if you become stranded. Install winter tires. Stopping and handling can be improved with winter or snow tires. Always make sure tires have adequate tread. Mechanic Check. Have mechanic check battery, antifreeze, wipers, ignition, thermostat, lights, exhaust, heater, brakes, oil. Install winter wipers. Winter wipers have a protective rubber layer so they keep working in ice and snow. Make sure to fill up with winter wiper fluid as well.

Winter weather wisdom:  - Keep heaters at least 3 feet from anything that can catch fire. - Check on your neighbors to make sure they're okay. - Only use generators outside, at least 20 feet from windows and doors. - Never use your oven to heat your home- it can be a fire hazard.
