With Foundation support, Safety Town equipped UA kids with life-saving lessons—and a little Hokey Pokey fun—just in time for back-to-school season!
Welcome back to school, Upper Arlington! Thanks to the City of Upper Arlington - Government's Police and Fire Divisions for preparing our littlest residents at Safety Town this summer. In June and July, kids all around UA learned about making wise decisions in dangerous situations, handling emergencies, understanding pedestrian and traffic safety... and of course, dancing the Hokey Pokey! Upper Arlington Foundation grants supported new sidewalks, bikes, and stop signs to enhance the signature UA program. This year, Safety Town continued to be one of the most popular programs for Upper Arlington youth, with eight five-class sessions held throughout the summer. Stay safe heading to school this week... that's what it's all about!
