Worcester County Sheriff's Office Community Policing Division in it's continuing efforts to protect area children and promote "Safe Kids" will conduct a free "Candy Checkpoint" as a added means of protecting our area youth.
The checkpoint will open promptly at 6 pm for trick or treaters that wish to have their candy "x-rayed."
Children should be accompanied by adults and this is not intended to replace the careful screening of the child's candy by a responsible adult.
What a nice thing to do. I am thrilled with Sheriff Mason and his deputies trying to jump start the neighborhood watches in the county and all the other things they are doing for the community like this.
ReplyDeleteI know they are keeping tabs on sex offenders also because this year was the first time we have ever had someone from the department in the neighboor checking even though offenders have been living here on and off for years.
