The Children's Safety Village of Brant..
gets a new mascot!

A Grade 2 student from Central Brantford Public School was the lucky recipient of a computer, won in The Children's Safety Village of Brant - Name the Mascot Contest. The computer prize was generously donated by Jebbo's Electronic Warehouse.

Julie Horrocks, Chair of Media/Public Relations, said that "there were some very interesting names submitted. The Media/Public Relations committee unanimously agreed that Seymore Safety Bear was the most appropriate name. The mascot will be used on brochures, t-shirts, balloons, and lapel pins to promote the village."

The original mascot design was created by local artist Michael Swanson and painted by Karen Jones, a student at Grand Erie Learning Alternatives.
