🚌 The big yellow buses are back on the roads! 🚌

As kids head back to school, remember they are most at risk when approaching or leaving the school bus.

🚗 Slow down when you see a school bus.
🛑 Stop when the bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended.
👀 Watch carefully for children crossing the road.

Let’s all do our part to help keep Illinois students safe this school year! 🎒

There's one thing frequently seen missing on forward-facing car seats - and it's important! Don't forget to use the tether for any forward-facing seat. This important piece can make a big difference in a crash.

Join us Friday and Saturday at Columbia Days. Weather looks to be a little warm, but there is no better way to cool off than with one of our world famous HOT FISH sandwiches!
We will start frying both days at 4pm. Look for the big red tent behind the band stand!
