The playground will be located in Manion Park here in Florissant. A St. Louis

the city is looking for additional funds to be donated towards the project.

came together to form Accessible Play, Inc., a non-profit corporation with an 314-422-2050
interest in building an inclusive playground in Florissant. In 2011, Florissant ward8@florissantmo.com
passed an ordinance to allow Accessible Play, Inc. the use of Manion Park as
the site that would be known as Angie’s Playground. In 2017, the city began
applying for St. Louis County Municipal Park grant to begin the process of turning Manion Park into a park that could Tommy Siam

completed. In 2019, a new larger accessible restroom and seating areas were added. The city is now entering the

Home Safety Tips For While You Are On Vacation
With vacation season quickly approaching, the Florissant Police Department wishes to pass along a few tips to keep your home secure while you are on your trip:
Don’t talk about it. Be cautious about who you tell about your trip. It is okay to tell a neighbor that you trust, but be careful about letting your whole neighborhood know that your
house will be empty for an extended period of time. Also, don’t post comments of social networking sites that you are leaving for a trip, or post comments while you are on vacation.
You never know who is seeing those comments, and you don’t want to advertise the fact that no one is at your house.
Use timers. Hook up timers to lights, televisions, and radios, and adjust the timers to your normal routine. This will help hide the fact that no one is home.
Lock up. Before leaving, make sure all of your doors, windows, garages, and sheds are secured.
Remember your mail. It is a good idea to request the post office to hold your mail while you are on vacation. This can be done either thru their website, or you can fill out a form
at your local post office. Another option is to ask a trusted neighbor to collect your mail and newspapers while you are away.
Remember your answering machine and email. Don’t tip anyone off that you will not be home by creating a new outgoing message for your answering machine saying that
you are on vacation. Also, be cautious on what you put in automatic reply email messages.
Lock away your valuables. Keep valuables and important documents in a fire safe box or a safe deposit box. Also, it is always a good idea to record the serial and model
numbers for your valuables so you can accurately report them missing if needed.
Park a car in the driveway. Give your home an appearance that someone is living there by asking a trusted neighbor to park his or her car in your driveway while you are away.
Outdoor lighting. Consider motion sensing lights on the outside of your house. Criminals typically do not want to be seen, so if a light comes on as they are walking around your
house, it may prevent you from becoming a victim.
Make notifications. If you have an alarm system, make sure that they know how to get ahold of you while you are away. This can also be said about the trusted neighbor who is
picking up your newspapers and mail, and who is parking a car in your driveway.
Complete a Vacation Check Form. The Florissant Police Department offers a free program to its residents where we check your house daily while you are on vacation. You
can complete this form on our website at www.florissantmo.com/police or you can fill out a form at the Florissant Police Department.
The Florissant Police Department wishes all of the residents of Florissant a safe and happy summer! For any questions, call Officer Steve Michael, the police department’s
Community and Media Relations Officer, at 314-830-6042 or smichael@florissantmo.com.
