Eighteen North Shore incoming 4th graders spent the week learning about their own safety, including more about North Shore Fire/Rescue and the Glendale Police Department at the 2nd Annual Summer Safety Camp.

The camp, open to residents of all seven North Shore communities, is organized by North Shore Fire/Rescue and the Glendale Police Department. Participants are taught by firefighters and police officers, along with presenters from groups like Eddie the Eagle Gunsafe Program, Davidson Yell and Tell Program and Schlitz Audubon Center, ATA Martial Arts.
