We have one-day programs, community events, summer camps and even offer birthday parties that are sure to excite everyone! Allow your children, aged 4-12, to come explore the CityScape and our mini-buildings, see what is inside of the Big Red Barn, and learn how to escape safely from a pseudo-fire in Sparky’s House. Empower your children with knowledge about staying safe in varying life-like situations.

Bicycle Safety, Rodeo, & PedalPushers™

With a focus on proper road safety procedures, this full-day program combines classroom instruction with on-site training to build on existing skills of the young cyclist.

This program encompasses basic bike maintenance ABC’s, helmet safety and check, standard road riding lessons and testing, and a rodeo ride or trail ride*.

Participants preferably are able to ride without training wheels, and are required to bring their own bicycles and bicycle helmets.

Included in Summer Camp

*Rodeo & Trail rides are group specific and will be mutually coordinated with group leaders and Safety City instructors.

Message us to inquire about availability or to book in a private group!

Animal & Pet Safety

Learn how domestic animals express themselves in natural ways, how to recognize signs of joy, playfulness, warnings, and aggression.

By studying the most expressive of dogs, students will learn to read and recognize body language, visual traits, and the messages that different vocalizations convey.

Knowing how happy and healthy animals react to human presence allows students to gain confidence around animals, and gives them the skills to recognize un-happy, erratic, or dangerous behaviors. They will also learn potentially life-saving techniques in response to an aggressive animal, acting to protect themselves and others in a safe and controlled environment.

Included in Summer Camp

Variations:

Visit with SC provided child-friendly dog and/or cat; or
Wildlife safety with nature walk to Michael O’Brian Wetland (also available on the road at your location with an appropriate green space).
