Oer 400 students attended the 17th Annual 4-H Safety Day held April 12 at National Guard Armory. All fifth graders from Harlan County and Harlan Independent Schools attended.  Due to the increasing number of ATV and drowning related accidents in Harlan and surrounding counties, it was established a need for safety information presented to students by professionals. Water and boating safety, fire safety, emergency rescue, gun safety,  bicycle safety, weather-related safety, ATV safety, and DUI simulated goggles were topics of presentations.  Students rotated through eight stations for presentations.  Presenters at this year's safety day were:  Harlan City Police, Harlan Trans-Star Ambulance, Harlan Rescue Squad, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Harlan City Fire Department, Harlan County Farm Bureau, Harlan County Sheriff's Department, National Weather Service, and Army Corps of Engineeers. Students learned from professionals in their fields.  Safey is a component of the state's core-content school testing program in the spring. 90 percent of students agreed to wear helmets when riding bicycles and ATV's.  85 percent of student answered they were more aware of the importance of wearing life jackets when boating or fishing.
