CALLING ALL BUSINESSESS to help schools BUST TRAFFIC!

For once, we don't want your money! To sponsor a school, all you need to do is identify two volunteers who can do most if not all of these things:

  1. Before and after school during Smart Sneaker Week of October 4-8, walk children to school from a Park-n-Ride lot or from drop-off points about 1/2 mile away every morning and return them to the same point after school.
  2. Give a 10-minute classroom presentation on September 24.
  3. Judge and score about 10 Adventure Books that kids and their parents will create about their adventures walking.
  4. If parents at the school you've chosen organize a Walking School Bus to continue walking to and from school for the rest of the year, send volunteers to join them every Wednesday.
  5. Join the big pizza party to celebrate the school earning the most Frequent Walker Points!

All sponsors will be named on the Traffic Busters web site, and their names will be released to newspapers. For this school year, a donated liability insurance policy is allowing us to add all volunteers and sponsoring institutions as "additional insured" at no charge upon request.
