Let's Remember Adam STOP for the School BUS

Let's Remember Adam STOP for the School BUS Adam Ranger is our little brother. The objective of this campaign is to make sure this kind of tragedy never happens again.

He was just five years old when he was struck and killed by a truck as he stepped off his school bus just outside his home on Friday February 11, 2000, in Mattawa Ontario. This horrific incident devastated Adam's parents, brothers, and family members, and robbed his friends and classmates of a dear companion. You may have seen these decals on the back of school buses, which feature Adam’s smiling

little face. These decals are also on personal vehicles, and emergency vehicles, such as ambulances and O.P.P vehicles, in the North Bay and Mattawa area. The campaign has expanded to also include other ways of spreading our message. There are billboards in the area and surrounding communities featuring Adam and his message, sponsored by local businesses and associations. Also, many local arenas have the Let’s Remember Adam message on their rink side boards. We sell bumper stickers for Donations towards the campaign. All the money raised goes towards the Let’s Remember Adam STOP FOR THE SCHOOL BUS campaign. As of 2018 Let's Remember Adam is working hard to get stop arm cameras on all school buses in Ontario and even Canada. We are also are pressuring our government to get Amber Eight Lamp Systems on all school buses in Ontario. Ontario is the only province that dose not run this system. If you would like to help please let us know, or contact your local member of Parliament, mayor, councilor or anyone you think that can help. Thank you for joining or visiting our page and please stop for a school bus when it’s stop sign is out or it’s over head lights are flashing. You never know who’s little brother, sister, son, daughter, grandchild or friend is getting off that bus

🚌 SCHOOL IS BACK — LET’S REMEMBER ADAM ❤️

As the school buses return to our roads, we want to share this important reminder from Adam’s Mom:

School has already started for some children, and here in our area, school starts Tuesday, September 8th.

🛑 STOP MEANS STOP.
🔴 RESPECT THE RED.
❤️ PUT CHILD SAFETY FIRST.

When a school bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, STOP. It’s that simple.

A child getting on or off a school bus should never have to worry about a driver ignoring the warning lights or rushing past a stopped bus.

Adam was just a little boy when he was killed after getting off his school bus. His school bus had its stop arm out and red lights flashing. That is why we continue to share Adam’s story and work to remind drivers that every child deserves to make it home safely.

Please slow down. Pay attention. Give yourself extra time. And most importantly—

🛑 JUST STOP.
🔴 RESPECT THE RED.
❤️ HELP US KEEP OUR CHILDREN SAFE.

Please share this video with your family, friends, and especially the young drivers in your life. One share could help save a child’s life.

Thank you to Country 90.5 FM CFCH, North Bay’s Best Country, and the Kevin O Show for proudly supporting Let's Remember Adam and helping us spread this important message.

Let’s Remember Adam. ❤️
Let’s Remember Why We STOP.

🚨 NEW LET’S REMEMBER ADAM BILLBOARDS! 🚨

We are incredibly proud to announce that NEW Let’s Remember Adam billboards are now up on Highway 124 near Sunridge! 💛

These important reminders are made possible thanks to the generous sponsorship of Ontario Water Well Fracturing. We cannot thank them enough for helping us continue to spread Adam’s message and keep school bus safety front and center in our communities. 🙏

A HUGE THANK YOU also goes out to Price Signs & Decals of North Bay for making and installing these beautiful new billboard signs! 👏❤️

From producing the signs to getting them installed at their new locations, we truly appreciate the time, effort and professionalism that went into bringing these new billboards to life.

And another HUGE THANK YOU to our amazing volunteers Derek & Vicky Lacelle and Gaige Blake! 👏❤️

Before these new billboards could be installed, the locations needed some serious clearing and cleanup. Derek, Vicky and Gaige generously gave their time and hard work to clear the billboard locations and get them ready for the new boards.

We truly couldn't have done it without you! Your willingness to volunteer and help make this project happen means so much to us. ❤️

Every time someone sees these billboards, we hope they remember that when a school bus has its RED lights flashing and STOP ARM extended — YOU MUST STOP. 🛑

Adam was just a little boy who never made it home from the school bus. His story is why we continue this fight — so that no other family has to experience the heartbreak of losing a child because someone failed to stop.

Please slow down. Pay attention. Respect the Red. ❤️

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped make these new billboards possible:

💧 Ontario Water Well Fracturing — Proud Billboard Sponsor
🪧 Price Signs & Decals of North Bay — Billboard Production & Installation
🌿 Derek & Vicky Lacelle & Gaige Blake — Location Clearing & Volunteer Support

It truly takes a community to keep Adam’s memory — and his message — alive. 💛
