Trick-or-treaters looking for a place to go can stop by the Governor’s Mansion on Saturday, the governor’s office announced.

The residence at 716 Calhoun Ave. will be open 6-8 p.m. for trick-or-treating.

“Not even a global pandemic could stop this spooky-fun event!” the governor’s office said in a news release.

Trick-or-treaters will be asked to follow City and Borough of Juneau health guidelines, according to the governor’s office. That means practicing social distancing and wearing a face covering when six feet of distance cannot be maintained.
