Community Safety Events

Shine Bright With Lights On!

Lights On! is continuing to build on positive community/police relations. These events will address a traffic safety issue by ensuring car lights are working and helping those impacted from a socio-economic standpoint.

If your car needs a light repair, you can pick up a Lights On! repair voucher, good for up to $250, at the events. You must have your car.
