REWARD YOUR SAFETY PATROLLERS WITH A FUN-FILLED TRIP TO EXCITING WISCONSIN DELLS! - MAY 17 - 18, 2018
75th Annual Wisconsin
                           Safety Patrol Congress
           We invite you to join us in Wisconsin Dells, May 17-18, 2018 to
            celebrate 75 years of commitment to School Traffic Safety!

The purpose of the first congress, and every congress since, has been to recognize and reward
students who faithfully serve as school safety patrols during the course of the school year.
These students are positive role models and recognized as leaders by their peers. The
Wisconsin Safety Patrol Congress is a special event that expresses our appreciation for their
hard work and dedicated service.

An on-going tradition at the congress has been an entertainment and awards program in
which students, selected as outstanding school safety patrols, are recognized during a
spectacular performance at the Tommy Bartlett Show.

Please review this book and become familiar with the activities planned for your safety patrol
delegates. Don't miss the fun, excitement and natural beauty of Wisconsin Dells as we
celebrate the 75th year of the Wisconsin Safety Patrol Congress!

Hope to see you in 2018!
