Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Department's 5th Annual Operation Safe Halloween is October 26th!
Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department partners with area law enforcement agencies to present the 5th Annual Operation Safe Halloween, Friday, October 26th. More than thirty local, state and federal partners will be handing out candy from their decorated cruisers, rain or shine. Kids should come in costume and bring trick-or-treat bags.
Lakeside Road between Ontario and West Third will be closed to traffic from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. so kids can trick-or-treat, meet law enforcement, enjoy the K9 unit, hear bagpipes, and play games. Free parking is available across the street at the Huntington Garage (enter from West 3rd Street).
