Thank you, Cook County Crossing Guards!

GRAND MARAIS, MINN. (April 13th, 2021) – 

Crossing Guard Appreciation Day is Wednesday, April 14th.  Our local crossing guards ensure children make it to school safely.  Each day, rain, snow or sun, they are there with a smile to allow children to safely cross intersections and streets before and after school. On behalf of the Safe Routes to School Committee, we say “Thank you!” to the amazing people providing this service to our school children.  You truly are appreciated!  

For more information about Safe Routes to School, contact SRTS Coordinator, Andrea Orest, at 218-877-8262 or [email protected].  You can also follow us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/cookcountysaferoutestoschool

*Please note that the Safe Routes to School committee, Minnesota Department of Health, and Statewide Health Improvement Partnership work together to encourage walking and biking to school, but do not assume liability for anyone’s commute to or from school.
