Jan 30, 2010 - target=_blank >Number of Crashes Still Up Despite Texting Ban Texting and driving has been illegal in Colorado for two months now. Now a study says that same law in other states has not reduced the number of car crashes. Researchers say they are baffled by these findings. The findings do indicate that there is a chance drivers are choosing to text and drive anyway. Oprah Winfrey is also encouraging everyone to put down their cell phones while behind the wheel. She has a campaign called, The No Phone Zone. She's asked all her viewers to take the pledge. You can do that by clicking on the link below. |

Jan 28, 2010 - "If You Were Mayor..." Essay Contest The City of Colorado Springs joins the Colorado Municipal League (CML) in presenting the 2010 “If I Were Mayor…” essay contest, open to all 7th grade students across the state. Many youth are not aware of the valuable services that the City of Colorado Springs provides: bike paths, recreation centers, police officers, street lights and crosswalks are all provided by municipal government. This essay contest can help get young people involved and engaged in the community and educate our future leaders on the importance of municipal government. Students are asked to answer the question, "If you were mayor, how would you explain the importance of municipal government to kids in your community?" Four winners will receive a certificate of achievement, a $500 savings bond, and an invitation for their parents and teachers to attend the 2010 CML Conference in June in Breckenridge to receive their award and present their essays during the Elected Officials Lunch. (Contest sponsor COLOTRUST will provide a stipend for their travel and lodging.) A brochure explaining more details about the contest is attached or can be downloaded from the CML website at http://www.cml.org/pdf_files/09_mayor.pdf. Entries are due to the CML office by Tuesday, April 13, 2010. |
