Dianne Wiemer, a teacher at Waller School, Jaycee Jeanne Otter (holding Courtney Richter) joined the girls in cutting the ribbon for opening day of Safety Town in June. Boy Scout Brian Soeth, not pictured, also helped out by painting the new layout for Safety Town on Waller’s playground.

The Burlington Jaycees sponsor Safety Town, a two-week safety education program for preschoolers held in June at Waller School. During the 20-hour course, preschool children learn safety behavior by participating in fun activities in a miniature town complete with buildings, streets, sidewalks and signs. Licensed instructors teach about safety both inside and outside the home. Children also enjoy field trips to the Burlington police and fire departments.
