On behalf of the Lenox City Council and Taylor County Sheriff Department Officer Jenkins and Mr. Peterson are having a class for scooter/bike/street safety. Scooters have become a hot topic in our community and across the state of Iowa. We hope this course will be a key component in keeping our kids safe on the roadways.

Students 12 and under who operate scooters and bikes on the roadways and trails of Lenox are strongly encouraged to attend one of the safety classes and are welcome to bring their scooters/etc., to help with demonstrations. The dates will be September 28 and September 30 from 3:30-4pm.

The Taylor County Sheriff's Department was contacted by Kristofer Bookman Kartau today. Kristofer is a student from Estonia, attending the Estonian Business School, and is working his way through college. He wanted to let the citizens of Taylor County know that he would be in doing door to door sales helping families with education. Kristofer has acquired all his proper licenses to go door to door. He asks that if you are simply not interested in his products just let him know and he will bid you a good day and move on. 📚

The car he is driving is Silver Subaru, plate SAR4228 (Georgia) & it will display ‘Southwestern Advantage’ logos.
