When we heard the words “The Safety Dance” it conjured up
memories of Men Without Hats and their 80s hit Safety Dance.
Now in 2021, The City of Kitchener has a new Safety Dance to
help citizens remember all the precautions they should be taking during the
pandemic. It includes reminders to wash your hand, wear your mask, stay 6 feet
apart and shelter at home. The Safety Dance Challenge is up and running and by posting
your version, you have a chance to win prizes too!
Even Mayor Berry is getting in on the action.
“As the pandemic wears on, it’s important that we keep public health safety measures top of mind,” said Kitchener Mayor Berry Vrbanovic. “Our safety dance challenge is a fun, lighthearted way to get up, move, and challenge friends and family to do the same. I’d encourage everyone – families with kids, teens, adults, and seniors to all take the challenge.”
