Students from the Wildwood School in Mt. Lakes, followed Sgt.Gil Benitz and "Walked to School" on May 18th, 2021.
The "walk to school" program usually kicks off in October, but due to COVID - 19 restrictions was postponed till May 2020. The children received a pedestrian safety lesson prior to starting their walk through Mt. Lakes and all arrived safely.
The kindergarten students were read a copy of Clifford Takes a Walk by community leaders and all received a complimentary copy of the book from Northern NJ Safe Kids / Safe Communities.
With the weather improving, a Bike to School Day is scheduled in June. Get Ready Mt. Lakes drivers, watch out for the kids.
