Because Safety City is such a unique facility, we are able to create
other programs for people of all ages. Some of the events held at
Safety City include:
Safety Fairs - children in grades 1-5 are targeted to participate
in various traffic-related safety skill stations with an emphasis
in bike safety. There are usually two fairs - one in the Spring and one in the Fall. The next fair is September 6, 2008 from 11 am to 3 pm.
Halloween in the City - families come to "trick or treat"
at Safety City. Last year, Safety City sponsors and city departments
sponsored trick or treat booths with a game or activity. About 100,000
pieces of candy were handed out, as well as carnival-type trinkets.
In addition, we had a magician, clowns, inflatable and carnival games,
karaoke, a costume contest, snow cones, cotton candy, hot dogs and
drinks. About 4,000 people attended the three-hour event. It is always
held on the evening of Halloween on October 31 from 5pm to 8pm.
