Coliseum Medical Centers will host the 2017 Child Safety Expo & Trick or Treat event on Saturday, October 28 from 10:00 a.m. to Noon.  This is a FREE event for kids and their families to learn valuable, life-saving information while having a great time!  In addition to trick or treating, families can learn safety tips on medication safety, poison control, choking hazards, car seat safety, and so much more!  Children will enjoy seeing a fire truck, law enforcement vehicles, ambulances, and even a helicopter.  The event will also offer tours of the Pediatric ER, games, food, and prizes.  There will also be a costume parade featuring all of the children who are present at the event as they show off their costumes.
 
At Noon, the hospital will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the number of s’mores made simultaneously.  In order to break the record, 500 people must be present.  The first 500 people who arrive for the s’mores record-breaking attempt are guaranteed a spot.  Coliseum Medical Centers will continue to distribute s’mores ingredients while supplies last!  The hospital encourages anyone who wants to participate to arrive before 11:30 a.m. or attend the Child Safety Expo & Trick or Treat beginning at 10:00 a.m.
 
The event will be held on the campus of Coliseum Medical Centers (350 Hospital Drive; Macon, GA  31217) and is sponsored by the Pediatric Emergency Rooms of Coliseum Medical Centers and Coliseum Northside Hospital.  Both hospitals have dedicated pediatric emergency room space with board certified pediatricians on staff to treat middle Georgia’s smallest patients.
