TRICK-OR-TREAT SAFETY TIPS!

Halloween is almost here!

Before our little ghosts, goblins, princesses, and superheroes head out for some sweet treats, here are a few reminders to help keep everyone safe!

******Stay Visible! Wear bright colors, add reflective tape to costumes if poasible, and carry a flashlight or glow stick.

******Stick Together! Younger children should always be accompanied by a responsible adult.

******Watch for Traffic! Use sidewalks when available, look both ways before crossing, and never assume a driver sees you.

******Visit Well-Lit Homes! Only approach homes with their porch lights on, and NEVER enter a stranger's home or vehicle.

******Check the Candy! Parents, take a quick look through your little one's treats before they start digging in!

******DRIVERS, PLEASE SLOW DOWN! Excited little trick-or-treaters can be unpredictable. Stay alert, put your phones away, and watch carefully for children crossing streets.

🎃 And most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Let's all do our part to make Halloween a fun, safe, and memorable night for our little trick-or-treaters here in Kirklin!

🧡 Happy Halloween from the Town of Kirklin! 🖤

Edit 10/27/26: I was informed the owner has been reunited. Thank you all for sharing!

FOUND DOG - PLEASE SHARE!

This sweet pup was found on W. Madison St. and has been safely transported to the Humane Society in Frankfort by our town marshal.

We are hoping the owner sees this or recognizes this as someone's fur baby and can let them know. We would love for them to be reunited ❤️

The phone number to the Humane Society is 765-670-7924 and is located at 825 Izaak Walton Dr., Frankfort.

Thanks for sharing and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

A LIFESAVING gift to our community I have been waiting to tell you all about!

We are excited to announce the addition of a new outdoor Automated External Defibrillator (AED) for our town park, made possible by an incredibly generous anonymous donor!

You may have already noticed it when it was briefly lit up prior to the electricity being disconnected at the park due to The Bridge project, so we decided to wait until power was restored to share the exciting news.

WHERE IS IT LOCATED EXACTLY?
It is installed on the north-facing wall between the two park bathrooms and is lit up so you can easily find it, even at night, because emergencies don't care if the sun is out or not.

WHAT MAKES THIS PARTICULAR AED SO SPECIAL? I'm glad you asked!

* Unlike most AED's, which are kept inside buildings and may not be accessible after hours, ours is housed in an all-weather outdoor enclosure, designed to provide 24/7 emergency access! The weatherproof enclosure protects the AED from rain, snow, dust, and extreme temperatures.

* It is thermostat-controlled to keep the equipment at safe operating temperatures during our cold Indiana winters.

* It is equipped with both adult AND pediatric electrode pads.

* It even has an interior LED light that helps make the equipment visible during nighttime emergencies!

* It is the only outdoor case of its kind located in Clinton County.

HOW DO YOU ACCESS IT IN AN EMERGENCY? Well that's simple!

1. CALL 911 FIRST!
2. Tell the 911 dispatcher where you are and that you need access to the outdoor AED.
3. The dispatcher will provide the access code to open the enclosure.
4. Retrieve the AED and follow the voice instructions while emergency responders are on their way.

WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT?

During sudden cardiac arrest, every second counts. Having an AED readily available can make the difference between life and death. The sooner CPR and defibrillation are provided when needed, the better chance of survival.

TO OUR ANONYMOUS DONOR:
We may not be able to thank you publicly by name, but please know how deeply grateful we are for your generosity and thoughtfulness for our community. You have given our little town something that truly matters - the opportunity to save a life.
We sincerely hope this AED never has to be used, but what a blessing to know it's there if someone needs it.
Thank you for investing in the safety and well-being of our Kirklin community!

!!!!!Please help us spread the word by sharing this post. Knowing where an AED is located and how to access it could someday save someone's life, even yours.
