🎃👻 Have a Spooky, Scary good, and 𝗦𝗔𝗙𝗘 Halloween! 🍬

Halloween is all about costumes, candy, and fun! Before you head out for a night of tricks and treats, the Marietta Police Department has a few safety reminders:

🔦 Be Seen! Carry flashlights, wear reflective items, and choose costumes that don't block your vision.

👨‍👦 Stay Together! Young trick-or-treaters should always have a responsible adult nearby.

🍬 Check Those Treats! Parents, take a quick look through your children's candy before they dig in.

🚗 Drivers, Slow Down! Watch carefully for little ghosts and goblins crossing streets or walking through neighborhoods.

🏠 Stick to the Sidewalks! Cross at intersections, look both ways, and never assume a driver sees you.

Most importantly, have fun, make memories, and look out for one another!

🎃 Wishing everyone a frightfully fun and SAFE Halloween from the Marietta Police Department! 👻

The creativity and imagination on display at the annual Marietta Sqarecrows on the Square Contest never cease to amaze us!

From spooky to silly, these scarecrows always bring a smile to our faces! We especially loved seeing a few that shared some important messages along the way. ❤️

Here's a sampling of this year's creations. We hope you had a chance to stroll through the Square and enjoy them!

Let’s work together, Marietta!

The center turn lane is for left turns—not for skipping traffic.

Under Georgia law, you may enter a shared center turn lane only to make a left turn and only within 300 feet of where you intend to turn. You may not travel more than 300 feet in that lane. (O.C.G.A. § 40-6-126)

Remember: Drivers coming from the opposite direction may need to use that same lane to turn into businesses or side streets. Entering too early can put you in the path of another vehicle.

Please be patient, stay alert, and help us keep Marietta’s roads safe!

For the record, it definitely seemed “safe” 😂
