Neighborhood Watch

Sudlersville has its own Town Watch Committee. The purpose of the committee is to make Sudlersville a safer and crime free town. How do we do this? With you, the citizens of the town. If you see suspicious or inappropriate behavior, excessive speeding or anything else out of the normal please contact the Town office. We will keep your name completely confidential. Our chairperson will then contact the local authorities. Together we can make a difference in our community and make Sudlersville a safe place to raise our children and run our businesses.

Community Day - October 8, 2011

Each year the town holds a community day which focuses on getting to know the commissioners and our neighbors. We have free giveaways, live entertainment, along with free food. Local businesses and authorities are also present for free information and any questions you may have. This is a great way for the town to give back to the community.

Due to bad weather, the Community Day was rescheduled. On Saturday, October 8, 2011 the Town of Sudlersville held their Annual Community Day. Over all, the Community Day was fun for those who came out to the free events.  The Blake Thompson Band was present to provide entertainment, in addition to a Moon Bounce for the kids

Back to School Safety

August 29, 2011 marks the beginning of the school year for most local families. We hope everyone has a great school year. Below are some safety and health tips to help get you through the year.

School Bus Riders
-Do not play on the street while waiting for the bus
-Carry all loose belongings in a bag or backpack and never reach under the school bus to get anything that has fallen beneath it.
-Line up facing the bus, not along side of it
-Move immediately onto the sidewalk and out of traffic after getting off the bus
-wait for a signal from the bust driver before crossing the street and walk at least 10 steps away from the front of the bus so the driver can see you

Backpack Safety
-Pack light, a backpack should never weigh more than 10 to 20 percent of the student's body weight
-Organize the pack to make use of all compartments and pack heavier items closest to the center of the back
-Choose a pack with wide, padded shoulder straps and a padded back
-Always use both shoulder straps, slinging a backpack over one shoulder can strain muscles and may increase curvature of the spine

Sleep Tips for Children
Children's health and behavior take a nose dive when their sleep habits are out of whack. Adequate sleep will boost your child's energy and enthusiasm. Good quality sleep can also help your child learn more easily and reduce many behavioral problems.
-Set a regular time for bed each night and stick to it
-Avoid feeding children big meals close to bedtime
Avoid giving anything with caffeine less than six hours before bedtime
-Make after-dinner playtime a relaxing time
-Establish a calming bedtime routine

Halloween
Please carry a light stick or flashlight when trick-or-treating. Watch for traffic, cars and childern. Have an adult check the candy; throw away anything that has been opened or half-opened. Do Not eat any candy before an adult checks it.
