Roundup for Safety supports traffic education

| July 24, 2024 1:00 AM

On July 11, Flathead Electric Cooperative’s Roundup for Safety program approved $19,668 in grants supporting community safety projects proposed by local nonprofit organizations.  

School District #5 requested $2,400 to purchase dashboard cameras for its eight traffic education vehicles, four at Glacier High School and four at Flathead High School.

Instructor Aaron Denney informed the Roundup for Safety Board that traffic education is a self-funded program. Annually, it serves over 600 students in the classroom and behind the wheel. The eight instructional vehicles each have a "chicken" brake and second mirror in the passenger seat for instructors.
