Free Internet safety program offered          Send a link to a friend

Program presents information especially important for parents to know

[NOV. 14, 2006]  MINIER -- Would you invite a predator into your home? You may be doing just that and not even realizing it when you get on the computer. Stalking and hunting potential victims has never been more convenient than it is in this online age. A free program next week on Internet safety will provide a frightening look into the minds of cyber predators and will cover topics such as Internet chat rooms, MySpace accounts and e-mailing.

During the school day, the fifth- and sixth-grade students at Olympia West Elementary School will have the opportunity to attend a presentation by Jack Bristow, who is a law enforcement instructor at the Livingston Area Vocational Center, Pontiac High School. He is a former member of the Pontiac Police Department, with over 18 years of police experience.

A seminar for adults will be presented at the Minier Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, next to the Dairy Barn restaurant, at 6 p.m. on Nov. 21. There is no cost for the seminar, and it is open to citizens from throughout the area. Child care will be available. Preregistration is requested in order to prepare for snacks.

For further details, contact Chief Daryl Weseloh of the Minier-Armington Police Department at 309-392-2442 or e-mail minierpd@mchsi.com.
