The day has finally arrived: It’s time to don the fake fangs or pick up the magic wand and scurry forth in search of bite-sized fun.

The city of Lawrence recommends residential door-to-door trick-or-treating from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. But there are several other places to get a candy fix:

l Beginning at 5:00 p.m. and running “until the candy runs out,” kids can trick-or-treat at the businesses on Massachusetts Street, said Sally Zogry, executive director of Downtown Lawrence, Inc. Participating business will have a representative located out front on the sidewalk handing out treats.

l The Hy-Vee at 3504 Clinton Parkway will have special candy in each department for trick-or-treaters from 4 to 6 p.m.

l Residents of the Drury Place at Alvamar retirement community will dispense candy from 6 to 7 p.m.
