Overview   of Safe Routes to School Annual Fall Summit

Safe Routes to School Annual Fall Summit

Carve out some time to join us for our virtual Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Fall Summit! This Summit is for anyone interested in learning all about SRTS and the many free programs that can benefit your students. We will cover our fallback favorite topics for our newer SRTS communities and for our more seasoned programs we will have a-maize-ing new material that we think you will like a latte. We encourage municipal staff, school, and school district staff, SRTS task force members, and anyone else interested in Safe Routes to School to attend. 

You are welcome to join us for any or all the sessions. We designed this summit to have sessions no longer than 30 minutes—allowing us to keep everyone engaged and able to attend multiple sessions.  Use the same Zoom link to enter and exit the sessions throughout the Summit. In lieu of regularly scheduled breaks, our informal “SRTS Quick Tip” sessions are great opportunities to get up and stretch your legs.

This Summit is limited to 100 attendees, so register now to save your spot! https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUrd-qgrD8iGtRkajUBLkBBQ9r8xZdXwzBq
