Home My WebLink AboutF. July - August 2015 NewsletterSOUTH July - August 2015 Dear Neighbor, SpUT$B� �EM�AIC�E BEND 1865 Summer is winding down and now it's time to head back to school. Classes in South Bend Community Schools begin August 18. Please remember to take extra precautions in designated school zones. All 50 states have a law making it illegal to pass a school bus that is stopped to load or unload children. Also, traffic in both directions is required to stop when students are entering or exiting a school bus. We thank all those throughout the community who help ensure the safety of the children in our community, and look forward to a smooth transition back to school. Before focus shifts to back -to- school activities and all that fall offers, I encourage you take advantage of the fun summer events around South Bend. Attendance at Four Winds Field at Stanley Coveleski Regional Stadium continues to climb. It's been a record - shattering first half of the 2015 season. We're thrilled that the fan base has been able to grow this year. It's a great place to spend a night out with family and friends. Also, mark your calendars for Art Beat 2015, on Saturday, August 29 from noon -8 pm. It's a showcase of over 200 visual, performing, and culinary artists from South Bend and the surrounding region. Residents are encouraged to stroll downtown streets during this free, family - friendly event. South Bend Parks and Recreation, in conjunction with Visit South Bend Mishawaka, is honored to host the International Softball Congress' 69th annual ISC World Tournament August 8 -15 at the Belleville Softball Complex. We eagerly look forward to welcoming teams from around the world to our community. A weekly pass is $50 and daily pass is $10. Children under age 12 are free. For more information visit sbpark.org. I hope everyone has had a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing you around the City in the weeks to come.
