Today is the day! Please use extra caution while driving in and around town and especially be aware of increased pedestrian and small creature traffic tonight.

The Town of Spencer has designated the general trick'or'treating hours as 5:30PM-8:00PM and the general areas of flow are on Hillside Ave. especially between West St. and East St. (east to west) and include the following north/south running streets between Morgan St. and Hillside Ave.: West St., Montgomery St., Main St., Washington St., Harrison St., and East St. This does not exclude any other areas within the town limits that may also have increased foot traffic for Halloween celebrations.

Again, drive safely, be alert, avoid distractions, and be mindful of vehicle lighting. A major increase of Law Enforcement presence will be provided during this holiday to assist with safety and security for our residents and visitors.

Remember that we here at the Spencer Police Department are welcoming visitors to enjoy free hotdogs, drinks, and candy for trick'or'treaters located at 80. N. West St. Spencer, IN 47460 beginning at 6:00PM and ending at 8:00PM.

The Owen County Sheriff's Office is also welcoming visitors at the Spencer Elementary School for food and drink. The Owen County 911 - Communications Center is welcoming visitors at the SES, and the Owen Valley Fire Territory will be at their station.
