Hi Everyone!!
We are excited to be off and running on yet another year of Skate the Lake festivities! And we already have plans to make this year bigger and better than ever.
Remember: DRIVE SMART Evergreen/Conifer develops partnerships with schools, businesses, civic, community and governmental organizations to educate, create awareness and improve attitudes concerning safe and courteous driving in our mountain communities, resulting in the reduction of traffic related injuries and fatalities. Thank you all and we are looking forward to a great New Year's Eve this year!

Other volunteers are needed occasionally for manning booths, stuffing envelopes and other outreach efforts. ...learn more
Buckle Bear - Middle school students assist in presentations to elementary and pre-school students with the message of "Buckle Up". We are looking for an elementary school liason who would take over setting up and guiding the presentations and who would work with the existing chair who is transitioning to the middle school liason at the end of this school year. Other volunteers are needed to man booths/attend public events to get out the "Buckle Up" message. ...learn more
Evergreen High School - Encouraging seat-belt usage and safer driving awareness is the goal on this committee, through trivia questionnaires, interactive games at school events, and seat belt checks as students arrive at school. Volunteers are needed to check students' cars as they enter EHS - cars with all passengers wearing seat belts receive prizes. This may become a weekly event if enough volunteers are recruited.
Infant Car Seats - Focused on Child Passenger Safety, including checking child safety seat (CSS) installations, replacing CSS when needed and educating parents on proper use and installation of CSS. Volunteers are needed for safety fairs, including the Evergreen Fire Safety Fair in September each year. Car Seat Technicians and regular volunteers are both needed, as are teenagers to wear costumes. Classes for health care providers and parents are planned for 2006. ...learn more
