For the first time since 2018, ChildrenConnect Newnan Children’s Museum is reintroducing Safety City to downtown Newnan, a Spring Break Camp in partnership with Newnan Fire Department, Newnan Police Department, Newnan Utilities, the City of Newnan, and Mayor Keith Brady. Children in kindergarten to fifth grade have the opportunity to learn safety and emergency readiness through a fun, engaging and immersive experience! They can anticipate an exciting lineup of fire safety demonstrations, interactive activities, guided tours of emergency vehicles, and health and safety displays by EMTs. Plus, campers will learn water, energy, and electricity safety. 

This four day drop-off camp session will take place during Spring Break, April 2nd – 5th, 9:00 AM – Noon each day. It will be held at the ChildrenConnect Museum, located on the corner of Temple Ave and College St. Here is what themes and activities you can expect;
