Safety Street halloween festival returns Oct. 24 for all students

For the first time ever, Student Life, the Campus Activity Board (CAB), and the School of Architecture & Community Development (SACD) are combining forces to put on a premier community festival here on the McNichols Campus.

Safety Street trick-or-treating itself has been going on at UDM for more than 30 years. Safety Street begins at 4:15 p.m. in Lot F by the main entrance of the McNichols Campus. But this year, the Safety Street festivities will be immediately followed by SACD’sMovies at Mercy’ event.

At 7:15 p.m., SACD will be screening in retro-style ‘drive-in’ the 2025 live action film How to Train Your Dragon. SACD students have specially prepared furniture for everyone to relax on as they enjoy the movie.

For more information on facade decoration and candy collections, head to Raftr, the UDM app. There are monetary prizes for best facade and most candy donated. Feel free to reach out to hisnersj@udmercy.edu if you have any questions. We hope you can participate in one or all sides of this fantastic event!
