Images from Safety Town graduation

By Melanie Maxwell

Dozens of pre-kindergarten-age children were honored Friday during a graduation ceremony from Safety Town at Dicken Elementary School.

The ceremony marked the end of the weeklong camp, sponsored by Ann Arbor Public Schools Community Education & Recreation Department and supported by the Ann Arbor Police Department. Safety Town curriculum covers fire and pedestrian safety, stranger danger and how to properly wear a bicycle helmet and use a booster seat.

AnnArbor.com staff photographer Melanie Maxwell captured these images.

AAPS transportation staff was also there as well. Kind of missed the boat on this one. Otherwise, Safety Town has been around for over 30 years. I did a volunteer one summer and loved it. Would love to volunteer again if I ever get a free moment to do this. BTW Special Olympics is looking for volunteers to help at EMU Convocation Center starting August 3. Just a heads up. I will be out of town that weekend. Everything grand and I am out of town. Figures.
