July
Safety Camp is a youth day camp full of games, laughter and general silliness. Campers have fun while learning about safe decisions and actions during a busy, high-energy day. Presentations are interactive and far from boring. Topics include fire, water, sport, bicycles, the internet and nature safety.
Participants will receive a T-shirt, lunch, snacks and materials.
This camp is open to children entering fourth and fifth grade this fall. Register by June 24.
Safety Camp is subject to change based on local COVID-19 local transmission rates.

Falls can happen to anyone. Because bones become more brittle as people get older, the severity of injury from even a simple fall can be debilitating.
Peggy Sue Garber and Gail Norris, trauma injury prevention nurses, will demonstrate strengthening and balance exercises, and discuss medication, home environment and community safety.
Learn what to do if you experience a fall, and get techniques to prevent falls at home and in the community.
