STS Highlights: June 2019
In celebration of Father’s Day this month, I’ve included a link to some “Dad Jokes” to add to your joke library. Sometimes a little humor during the day can really make a difference. We’re also taking a look at the impactful Busing on the Lookout (BOTL) training to combat human trafficking. Many drivers are entering a Summer slow-down so embrace the extra spare time and use this month’s resources!
Thank you for your time,
Patrick

STS Highlights: May 2019
This month I am personally participating in National Bike Month, like I do each year. As an avid cyclist, I like to promote this month as a public service. There are a lot of people, vehicles, and hazards on the road. This month, please be especially aware of your surroundings and safely share the road with pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcycles, automobiles, school buses, and everyone else trying to get from his/her “Point A” to “Point B.” Enjoy this month’s resources!
