SUMMER CAMPS
SAFETY VILLAGE
Safety Village
Held at Spring Avenue Recreation Center
Age: 4-7
The Safety Village program is designed to build a foundation of safety
knowledge in young children, including personal, pedestrian, home
and play safety, in a fun environment. Children learn how to handle
specific safety situations, such as being approached by a stranger and
how community workers help people. This program is based on a
play philosophy. Classroom visitors, games, crafts, music, stories, films
and role playing are a part of the Safety Village curriculum. Children
will practice safe riding and street safety in our outdoor learning area.

garden the public and insects will enjoy! Different hands-
on projects will be completed each day. Churchill Park will
