It's an event designed to help Middleton families find all the information they need to keep their family safe.

Middleton Fire, Police & EMS are teaming up with West Bend Mutual Insurance, the Dean Foundation and other local organizations for the fifth annual Family Safety Day on Saturday, Sept. 17 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Middleton Fire Station at 7600 University Ave.

Parents can help their children stay safe by:

• Signing up for Safe Assured ID kits with the Middleton Police Department
• Learning what to look for when choosing a nanny or babysitter
• Understanding the appropriate way to respond to common medical emergencies

More than 20 local organizations will be on-hand with valuable information for parents as well as fun, educational activities for kids. 

Children will have a chance to see fire extinguisher demonstrations, as well as climb into and explore one of Middleton's fire engines. They can also run through the Harbor Athletic Club obstacle course and dig their hands into one of many kid-friendly demonstrations. 

Parents can also sign up with Dean Foundation for a free car seat inspection. Caall Sherri at 608-827-2327.  Note that space is limited.
