TRANSPORTATION PROCEDURES

WHY DO WE DO THIS? Child safety is our top priority Ensures that each child is picked up by a proper parent or guardian every time Gives us the chance to interact one-on- one with each child every day Allows us to check in with both kids and parents about any questions or concerns Helps keep the process organized and efficient Lots of people coming and going in a very small space

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT? Issued a yellow card in your registration packet Write your childs name on it legibly Place it on your dashboard so it can be read by an officer from outside the vehicle A yellow card with your childs name on it needs to be present each day of camp in order to pick up your child If someone else will be picking up your child during camp, ensure that you give them your childs yellow card Extra yellow cards are available upon request

DROPPING OFF A CHILD Pull up along the curb to the first available space Keep traffic flowing – dont double park!

PICKING UP A CHILD During busy times, traffic will line up along Lakeside Drive Please dont block the driveways so traffic can keep moving

PICKING UP A CHILD Wait in line until an officer assigns you a number (1-5) Park along the curb next to your number The officer will read the names off your yellow cards over the PA

PICKING UP A CHILD Officers will assist your children with getting into the vehicle and buckling into seatbelts/car seats to keep traffic flowing smoothly

KEEP IT EFFICIENT Leave as a group Wait to drive away from your number until the numbers in front of you start to move Put the car seat on the right (passenger) side of the car if possible to speed up the process for officers buckling kids in Parents need to stay in their cars during the pick-up and drop- off process Apply sunscreen, gather supplies, and give hugs & kisses before you get to the school

WHAT IF WE WALK? Parents who walk with their children will need to wait in line next to the officer with the PA to have the childs name called Those children will be asked to report to the sidewalk instead of to a number (1-5)

THANK YOU! We know that this process can be confusing at first, but we appreciate your cooperation in ensuring that your kids stay safe and have fun during Safety Village!
