GREENSBORO, N.C. — Greensboro police are offering a special program for five and six year old children.
It's called "Safety Town."
The program teaches children about the dangers of strangers, fires, drugs, guns, and much more.
Safety Town is a partnership between the Greensboro Police Department and the Nat Greene Kiwanis Club of Greensboro.
The two-week program consists of six summer sessions with about 115 children.
During each session, GPD School Resource Officers use a miniature mock city to help get children involved in learning valuable safety skills.
Space is still available for three sessions operating in the afternoon from 1 pm to 3 pm.
- June 17 – 28
- July 22 – August 2
- August 5 – August 16
Graduations for all sessions are held at the Lewis Recreation Center located at 3110 Forest Lawn Drive in Greensboro on the last day of the session.
Participation in the program is $35 per child.
