The county publishes a neighborhood activity window

Sussex County’s official event list shows trick-or-treat activities throughout county neighborhoods on Saturday, October 31, 2026, from 4 to 9 p.m. The listing gives families a general planning window.

It is not a directory of participating homes, a promise that every neighborhood participates or a guarantee about weather, lighting or traffic conditions.

Make a household plan without publishing a child’s route

Caregivers can choose a route, meeting point, visibility plan and age-appropriate supervision based on current conditions. Private child names, photos, health information and precise real-time locations should stay out of public posts.

Respect property boundaries and only approach locations that clearly welcome visitors.

Check for later official updates

Review the county event page before heading out and follow any current public-safety or weather notice. Gretna Junction does not collect family attendance, map private homes or certify a route.

If the county changes the listed hours or issues a more specific notice after October 7, that current official information controls.
