Safety Patrol Members Receive AAA Training
The Pella School Safety Patrols received a fall training session led by Wilson R. Morrison of the AAA Motor Club of Town. The program stressed proper crossing procedures, with patrols at over 300 Iowa schools aided by belts, badges, and materials. Morrison noted patrols direct safe crossings only, while drivers must stop at school signs, and parents should rely on patrol duty hours when planning school visits. Lincoln and Webster Elementary and Pella Christian Grade School were among the participants.
