Question

My neighbors and I are concerned about the safety of children who play on our street. Many drivers speed along our street every day, putting our children’s lives in danger. Unfortunately, the city doesn’t have the money or the staff to put speed limit signs or speed bumps on every street. This is why we have decided to finally do something about it.

Join us this Friday night at 7:00 p.m. in Room 3 of the public library for a sign-making party. Bring poster boards, paints, and brushes if you have them, or just show up for some sign-making fun. The signs will read phrases like, “Slow down! Children at Play!” We are hoping that the bright colors will remind drivers to slow down on our streets. If we all pitch in and work together, it just might work!
