Thank you to our major corporate sponsor!

Gary Patterson began his 160km Stride for Safety in Wheatley on Monday, August 30, 2010 and finished at 99.1 FM CKXS on Tuesday, September 7th, 2010. Congratulations and thank you Gary, we know it wasn't easy! Money is still coming in, we're guessing the walk raised over $7,000 for the Chatham-Kent Children's Safety Village.

"The Big Build" Chatham-Kent Home Builders Association Members Volunteer

On Friday September 18, 2009, members of the Chatham-Kent Professional Home Builders Association volunteered their skills on location at the Children’s Safety Village. Four local sponsors have purchased cement pads and materials needed to create miniature replicas of their businesses, the Home Builders provided free labour by building the structures free of charge. Some of these buildings will be used to teach interactive safety programs offered to local youth. The new additions to the Village include; Chatham-Kent EMS building, Chatham-Kent Fire Department, a Pioneer barn, and a non-denominational chapel sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. All building structures are up with only some finishing details to be complete within the next few weeks. Thank you to Water Elite for providing water coolers which kept builders hydrated and thank you to the Knights of Columbus for providing a wonderful BBQ lunch for all the volunteers.

There are still some spaces available for purchase in our village, if your business is interested in purchasing a pad, please contact Barb Lovell, Executive Director, at 519-360-1270.

These seven students volunteer their time to help educate the community on the Children’s Safety Village through various short skits that they have created to perform at local businesses and events.

Thank you to all of the Safety Squad members for their genuine commitment and dedication to the Children’s Safety Village and to safety and injury prevention initiatives.
