The City of Urbana shared that there will indeed be trick-or-treating in Champaign and Urbana this year, setting the hours from 5 to 7 p.m. on October 31st, though they encourage alternate activities at home for the lowest risk.
Guidance from the Illinois Department of Public Health states that trick-or-treating activities (as well as other Halloween events) need to incorporate social distancing, masking, and proper handwashing, as well as adherence to event size limitations.
We gave some suggestions for some safer ways to trick or treat and celebrate the holiday.
