Activities to help keep our kids safe

The Eagle Optimist Club is helping children in our community get ready to enjoy a safe summer.

On Saturday, June 11, Optimist Club members will assist Washington Trust Bank at the first family fun area at Eagle Fun Days. Stop by and say hello, and let the kids run in this safe area while you take a break. We'll be there from 10 am to 8 pm, in the exhibit area near City Hall. 

Next week, please join us for the second annual Child Safety Day. We want kids to be safe at home, on their bikes and will teach them some personal safety tips too. Please click and print the flyer for full details.
