Safety Town Program & Summer CampSafety Town Questions? Call 734-994-2300, x 0

For incoming Young 5’s, Kindergarten or First graders. Safety Town is one of Rec & Ed’s most popular summer educational programs. Your child learns safety awareness in a fun and entertaining way using a child-sized mock Ann Arbor “town” explored on bikes. Kids learn how to evaluate safe from unsafe when confronted with potentially dangerous situations. Guest speakers include police officers, firefighters, water safety specialists and “Buster the Bus,” AAPS’ own talking school bus. Songs, games, stories and art projects reinforce the lessons about: Bike and vehicle safety, Fire safety, Riding a school bus, Stranger safety and Pedestrian safety

Safety Town is even more fun with Fall 2017 classmates. We try to place children with others attending their school. This gives them a chance to meet students from their class before school begins this fall. We also make every effort to place students with friends as long as a special request is included when you register.

• Please be sure to fill out the consent and emergency forms prior to the start of your camp week and return them to us.
