ATTENTION PARENTS:

It has come to our attention that there are young kids riding e-bikes and e-scooters on the streets around town. Please advice them that they need to be sure and obey traffic signs and stay off the higher traffic streets such as the truck route and downtown and use sidewalks whenever possible. The best option would be to utilize the walking path at the park. Thank you for your cooperation with this.
