Unfortunately we need to cancel the MBCA Halloween Parade this Saturday.
In an effort to reduce the rising spread of COVID-19 in Alberta, Dr. Deena Hinshaw (CMOH) has instituted a mandatory 15-person limit on all social gatherings indoors or outdoors in Calgary and Edmonton.
For additional information, see links below:
October 26, 2020: Alberta Chief Medical Officer of Health (CMOH) Letter – see page 2, step 2:
“All private social gatherings are limited to a maximum of 15 people regardless of whether the gathering is fully or partially indoors or outdoors.”

TRICK-OR-TREATING AND HANDING OUT CANDY
- Please refer to the AHS Guidelines for Halloween during COVID-19 https://www.alberta.ca/halloween-during-covid19.aspx to safely Trick-or-Treat and creative ways for Handing out Candy.
- For those homes wishing to hand out candy, please follow the AHS guidelines and turn your front lights on so the little ghosts and goblins know you are participating. Of course make sure you maintain your social distance, sanitize your hands often and wear masks.
- For those homes who do not feel comfortable handing out candy this year, please turn off your front lights and/or place a sign on your front steps/walkway to let the little ghosts and goblins know you are not participating in Trick-or-Treating this year.
Thank you for your support!
