Thursday might have been just another overcast summer day to some students on break, but to the children attending Camp Lifesavers, it was an opportunity to learn about safety. Camp Lifesavers, a one-day free safety camp for area children ages 6-11, is geared toward creating a fun, hands-on environment while simultaneously educating campers about electrical, water, animal, fire and bike safety. Lt. Beverley Walker of Hall County Fire Services was overseeing the camp activities at Mulberry Creek Community Center.
