How does Play It Safe work? Cate Square Park will be divided in three safety zones where hands-on
demonstrations teach everyone how to be safe at home, on the road and
during sports and outdoor adventures. Community partners and their activity
will be added to each zone as they are confirmed. Children can tour their
favorite rescue wheels, and enjoy the Snack and Fun Zones too!
