2021-2022:
Various activities conducted mostly remotely and virtually due to Pandemic precautions, and also referrals to the national support center website ww.oli.org for downloading important Rail Safety handouts and videos. Also MANY EMAILED Jennie at gaol@mindspring for additional help.
While our annual "Appreciation Luncheon" had to be cancelled this year, along with our quarterly membership meetings, we emailed pertinent information and committee reports to all of our members, our volunteer presenters (OLAVs), and sponsors, promising to have a special luncheon next year if circumstances allow.
Our sincere gratitude to our Board of Directors for their support in helping guide us through this unusual year and especially to Board Chairman Franklin Brown for ensuring that our State Coordinator always had his full attention.
2022 Activities: Due to continuing COVID-19 restraints, we will continue practicing all safety protocols until such time that we are notified it is safe to do in-person meetings and community events. In the meantme, any in-person requests should continue to be forwarded to the State Coordinator for handling. We are providing OL Handouts and information to all requesting communities and businesses as well as government agencies, first responders, transportation directors/school bus driver trainers, commercial truckers, teen drivers and others. Further, all requests are being handled either by the State Coordinator or Authorized Volunteers who have been cleared by OLI as well as their own employer to again do in-person activities. Safety is always our primary concern.
