Walk this Way - Mountain Lakes Wildwood School!

Walk this Way

We celebrated International Walk to School Day on Oct. 3, 2018 at the Wildwood School in Mountain Lakes. Northern NJ Safe Kids / Safe Communities, FedEx, BIA, Goryeb Children’s Hospital, Parsippany EMS and our hosts the Mountain Lakes Police Department teamed up to raise awareness, promote pedestrian safety and create safer routes for walking and bicycling for children.

Volunteers from all our partnered agencies mentioned above assisted with a Walk to School and a pedestrian safety exhibit.

Police Chief Shawn Bennett and Mayor Lauren Barnett were guest readers in the kindergarten classes and read Clifford Takes a Walk to the children.

We plan to continue our pedestrian and bike safety initiatives by promoting Bike to School Day and a Bike Rodeo in the Spring.
