Ashland has developed a reputation over the past decade as the place to be on All Hallows Eve. It all starts with the costume parade through downtown in the afternoon, followed by trick-or-treating, dance performances, science demonstrations and more. That's all family-oriented and Chamber of Commerce-approved — although some especially gruesome costumes have drawn criticism in past years because they might frighten small children. It's the alcohol-fueled adults who take to the streets after dark that have police geared up and ready. Ashland's small police force will be bolstered by reinforcements from Talent, Phoenix and Medford to put 30 uniforms on the streets. The goal is to prevent a repeat of past Halloweens when thousands thronged the Plaza and dozens were arrested amid an atmosphere of vandalism and violence. To be clear, problems have steadily diminished in recent years after police stepped up their efforts. And we have no reason to think things will get out of hand tomorrow. But  this year, the holiday falls on a Friday night, which means more people who don't have to go to work or college classes the next day. The last Friday Halloween, in 2008, resulted in 37 arrests. Have fun and enjoy the costumed merriment — but keep it peaceful, please.   DailyTidings.com Writer Posted Oct. 30, 2014 @ 12:01 am » Comment or view comments Reader Reaction » STAY INFORMED Email NewsLetter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox. calendar Connect with DailyTidings.com Facebook Twitter RSS Back to top Reader Services Reader Services home Subscriptions Subscriber controls Contact us Submissions Photos Events Letters to the editor Corrections Alerts Email alerts RSS feeds Text Alerts Advertise Media Kit Home Products and services Ad rates Advertising contacts Mail Tribune Daily Tidings The Nickel Shop Our Valley Blogs Stay Informed Email newsletter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox.
