Blackfoot Police trunk or treat canceled
BLACKFOOT, Idaho (KIFI/KIDK) - The Blackfoot Police Department has decided to cancel its trunk or treat this year.
"This was a hard decision to make as we know how many families look forward to this event each year," the department said in a Facebook post. "The health and safety of our staff and citizens of Blackfoot is our top priority and with the unpredictability of COVID-19 it would be difficult to meet the recommendations of the CDC and SIPH."
The department said canceling the event is the best step to help limit the transmission of COVID-19 in the community.
"We greatly appreciate all the support we have experienced from the community, and we look forward to hosting and seeing everyone at this event next year!"
