FORT GREGG-ADAMS, Va. — The Fort Gregg-Adams Halloween Trick or Treat night will be 6 p.m.-8 p.m. October 31 in the housing areas.

The activity is open to on-post residents, Department of Defense ID cardholders and their guests.

Those who wish to participate should keep their porch lights on as long as they are handing out candy.

The Provost Marshal Office is working to provide a safe environment for the community to participate in Halloween Trick or Treating.

The PMO will have additional patrols in the housing area and two command posts: 1) the parking lot of the Child Development Center, 2) the Yorktown Drive Parking lot of the Valor Circle Community Center.

Safety reminders:

  • Drive extra safe on Halloween.
  • Slow down and be especially alert in neighborhoods.
  • Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways.
  • Take extra time to look for kids at intersections.
  • Get rid of any distractions, like phones, and concentrate on the road and surroundings.
  • Turn headlights on earlier in the day to spot children from greater distances.
