On Friday, March 14, 2025, SAM partnered with Cedar Ridge Middle School to provide a trolley Travel Training combined with a civics lesson for a group of engaged students. The training covered best practices for riding the bus, including how to identify the correct route, communicate your destination to the driver and follow proper bus etiquette. The trip concluded with a visit to City Hall and, of course, the beloved Joe’s Donuts. At City Hall, the City Manager welcomed the students and shared insights into his role, the function of City Council meetings and Sandy geography. The trip was quite a success, leaving students with valuable knowledge and a memorable experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
