The Youth Activities League (YAL) is making 2026 a year to remember! ๐ŸŒŸ

Led by Deputy Mayra Aguilar, YAL offers youth with more than just a place to go after school. Through mentorship, academic enrichment and safe recreational activities, the program provides local kids with a pathway to success.

Recently, 41 of our YAL participants enjoyed a special weekend excursion to Castle Park in Riverside! From riding their favorite attractions with minimal wait times to enjoying a group lunch and arcade games, the day was full of fun. The trip wrapped up back at Spane Park with a pizza party. ๐ŸŽข๐Ÿ•

Take a look at some of our favorite moments from this awesome trip! ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿ“ฑ When any disaster or emergency strikes, communication is key! Kick off our April emergency preparedness series by creating a family communication plan.

Make your plan today!
๐Ÿ“ Write it down: Keep physical copies of important phone numbers in wallets and backpacks
๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ Pick a meeting spot: Choose a location right outside your home and one outside your neighborhood
๐Ÿ“ž Designate a contact: Pick an out-of-state contact because long-distance calls often go through when local lines are jammed

๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ E-bikes are a great way to get around Paramount, but do you know the rules of the road?

The Public Safety Department is officially kicking off a E-Bike Safety Campaign! First, let's clear up what an e-bike actually is:

๐Ÿ›‘ A legal e-bike has fully operable pedals and an electric motor under 750 watts.
๐Ÿ›‘ Pocket bikes, mopeds and electric motorcycles without pedals are not e-bikes. They are illegal to ride on public streets and sidewalks.

Learn more at www.paramountcity.gov/pedals-power-and-public-paths-your-guide-to-e-bike-types/.

Ride smart, ride legal and share the road! ๐Ÿšฒ๐Ÿš“
