September 2015
Hello Everyone,
It's that time of the year when our children are heading back to school. Let’s be aware that they will be running around and crossing the streets. As usu-al, I will repeat our Lodge is doing well and participation in our events and ac-tivities for the Lodge are getting better. Hate to repeat myself again but all of our committees could use new and fresh people with new and fresh ideas so if you have time on your hands now that the little ones are back in school stop by or give us a call. Thanks.
I’d like to take a moment to thank all of our Board Members, Trustees, and our chair officers as well as our Committees for the fine work that they do to help make our Lodge so successful. Again, I would like to " Thank Every-one" for all of their contributions in finding ways to make our Lodge the Best it could Be!!
Don't forget watch for the up and coming events. Again, if you can help out in any of them please do so, or bring your friends and join the fun and the Great people of this Lodge.
Fraternally yours,
Michael Greaver
Exalted Ruler

Things get a li�le crazy on the roads during the school year: Buses are everywhere, kids on bikes are hurrying to get to
school before the bell rings, harried parents are trying to drop their kids off before work. It's never more important for
drivers to slow down and pay a�en"on than when kids are present, especially before and a#er school.
If You're Dropping Off Schools o#en have very specific drop-off procedures for the school year. Make sure you know
them for the safety of all kids. More children are hit by cars near schools than at any other loca"on, according to the
Na"onal Safe Routes to School program.
The fowling apply to all school zones:
Sharing the Road with Young Pedestrians According to research by the Na"onal Safety Council, most of the children
who lose their lives in bus-related incidents are 4 to 7 years old, and they're walking. They are hit by the bus, or by a
motorist illegally passing a stopped bus. A few precau"ons go a long way toward keeping children safe:
• Don't block the crosswalk when stopped at a red light or wai"ng to make a turn, forcing pedestrians to go around you;
this could put them in the path of moving traffic
• In a school zone when flashers are blinking, stop and yield to
pedestrians crossing the crosswalk or intersec"on
• Always stop for a school patrol officer or crossing guard holding
up a stop sign
• Take extra care to look out for children in school zones, near
playgrounds and parks, and in all residen"al areas
• Don't honk or rev your engine to scare a pedestrian, even if you
have the right of way
• Never pass a vehicle stopped for pedestrians
• Always use extreme cau"on to avoid striking pedestrians wherever they may be, no ma�er who has the right of way
Sharing the Road with School Buses If you're driving behind a bus, allow a greater following distance than if you were
driving behind a car. It will give you more "me to stop once the yellow lights start flashing. It is illegal in all 50 states to pass
a school bus that is stopped to load or unload children.
• Never pass a bus from behind – or from either direc"on if you're on an undivided road – if it is stopped to load or
unload children
• If the yellow or red lights are flashing and the stop arm is extended, traffic must stop
• The area 10 feet around a school bus is the most dangerous for children; stop far enough back to allow them space to
safely enter and exit the bus
• Be alert; children o#en are unpredictable, and they tend to ignore hazards and take risks
By exercising a li"le extra care and cau#on drivers and
pedestrians can co-exist safely in school zones.
• Don't double park; it blocks visibility for other children and vehicles
• Don't load or unload children across the street from the school
• Carpool to reduce the number of vehicles at the school
