Sandy forces Maple Shade to postpone trick-or-treating
The storm has passed and Wednesday could bring sun, but not everyone will be celebrating Halloween tomorrow.
Maple Shade, N.J., has canceled its Halloween parade, PhillyBurbs reports, and has postponed trick-or-treating.
Hurricane Sandy left its mark on the town, and damages and clean-up efforts make trick-or-treating Wednesday night a bad idea.
Costumed kids will instead trick-or-treat Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., taking the sting out of scary costumes but ensuring safer conditions.
