Editor's Notes

  1. It just so happens that I live less than a mile from where Henry Ford filmed a movie in 1924 that was the SRTS movie of it’s day – it was called The Road to Happiness. There’s a long history of executing societal change through kids. – smoking, recycling, seatbelts. Henry Ford’s movie was part of the Good Roads Movement so I have adopted the Good Roads philosophy but updated for 21st century living, understandings & ideas
  2. The Bureau of Good Roads staffers design and facilitate community classes, events, and workshops to explain how our streets and transportation work. ​ Our goal is to engage and teach through fun, fresh and unexpected approaches. All our programs are customized to address local needs, and can be developed for children or adults The Bureau of Good Roads staffers design and facilitate community classes, events, and workshops to explain how our streets and transportation work. See the line to get drawings reviewed, signed & sealed at the engineering booth. This is what happens when kids are excited about their built world. 
  3. Low-cost easy implementation, yet relates to big ideas in real world
  4. .
  5. Reaching range of ages/abilities/knowledge levels with same materials & challenges
  6. Teamwork & collaboration
  7. If they want to learn the details about this stuff, they can go to engineering school.
