Halloween Fun with Safety in Mind

Halloween is one of the most anticipated times of year for kids in Central Pennsylvania. From dressing up as favorite characters to trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, the holiday offers a chance for imagination and excitement. However, with shorter daylight hours, increased pedestrian traffic, and kids darting from house to house, safety can become a concern.

That’s where FishingCreek Transportation drivers come in. While their primary role is transporting students safely every day, during Halloween, their vigilance and professionalism ensure that all children can enjoy a spooky, fun, and safe holiday.

Professional Training That Keeps Kids Safe

FishingCreek Transportation drivers undergo rigorous training that prepares them to handle a variety of situations, including seasonal hazards like Halloween night traffic. Their training includes:
