Aloha Vikings! My name is Joseph and here are your announcements.
This week is Traffic Safety week. The “Stop If You Love Me” campaign is a nationwide campaign that promotes drivers and passengers to reduce risky behaviors while on the road. We want to remind and encourage drivers to keep their focus on the road and not be distracted while driving. And if you are a passenger, you could still do a part by keeping your drivers free from distractions. In celebration of traffic safety week, we will be having a rally on Friday, Feb 18, 2022 during lunch in front of the LRC.We will be having fun activities such as a bicycle racing contest, and signing of the driving safety pledge poster. Everyone who participates will be receiving gifts. Take your part in being a safe driver and passenger to keep you and every road user safe.
