Summer Safety Day

A DAY OF FUN, LEARNING, AND COMMUNITY SAFETY!

YouthLink Calgary Police Interpretive Centre, in partnership with the Calgary Police Service, is proud to host the 2nd Annual Summer Safety Day — a free, family-friendly event dedicated to helping Calgarians enjoy a safe, informed, and connected summer.
