Racine County Sheriff’s Deputy Dave Fisher and his K9 partner Murphy visit the Safety Town program held at Burlington’s Dyer School on June 22. Fisher told the students about the work he and his partner of eight years undertake. The two-week Safety Town program is sponsored by the Burlington Kiwanis Club in collaboration with the Burlington Police Department. The Kiwanis Club stepped in last year to sustain the program after the local Jaycees club, which was a longtime sponsor of Safety Town, disbanded. The program is normally open to children entering kindergarten, but because the pandemic forced cancellation of last year’s program it was also open to incoming first graders in 2021. Safety Town teaches participants a series of lessons focused on personal and community safety. (Photo by Ed Nadolski)
