2024 I AM READY Workshop in Florence

Keep Your Child Safe On The Road: A Recap of Our Youth Workshop in Florence, KY

On Saturday, August 24th, we were thrilled to host a special event at our Florence, KY location aimed at empowering the next generation of drivers with critical survival skills. The “Keep Your Child Safe On The Road” workshop was an incredible success, bringing together 10 teens from the local area for a morning of hands-on learning and real-life driving skills.

Comprehensive Survival Skills for Your Young Driver

This complimentary workshop provided our young drivers with the confidence and knowledge needed to handle emergencies on the road. From 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM, participants engaged in interactive sessions designed to equip them with essential skills that every driver should know.

What Our Young Drivers Learned:

Changing a Flat Tire: Teens learned how to locate and change their spare tire, ensuring they won’t be stranded on the road.
Checking Tire Pressure: Understanding the importance of tire pressure and knowing when to replace tires based on tread wear.
Jump-Starting a Car: Whether they have another vehicle available or not, they now know how to jump-start their car.
Understanding Fluid Leaks: Participants learned to identify different fluids that might leak and what each one means.
Under the Hood Knowledge: A comprehensive overview of what’s under the hood and how to use the “I AM READY” tool bag effectively.
Accident Preparedness: Critical steps to take in the event of an accident, ensuring they stay safe and handle the situation correctly.

A Priceless Opportunity

This workshop was more than just a learning experience—it was an investment in the safety and confidence of our community’s youth. The skills they acquired are not only practical but also invaluable, providing peace of mind to parents knowing their children are better prepared for the challenges they may face on the road.

Ongoing Support

We’re not stopping here! Our participants will continue to receive monthly driving tips via text, reinforcing the knowledge gained and helping them stay sharp on the road.

We’re incredibly proud of the impact this workshop had on our community and look forward to hosting more events like this in the future. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this event such a success! Stay tuned for more opportunities to equip your young drivers with the tools they need to stay safe on the road.
