That’s a Wrap! 2024/25 Patroller Celebrations

Updated: June 25, 2025

Teddy bear hugs, speed competitions, and bubble magic were just a few of the ways we celebrated the 2024/25 class of AMA’s School Safety Patrol team. As they take a well-earned break for the summer, we hope you’ll join us in sharing our thanks for the nearly 13,000 patrollers across Alberta who helped keep school crosswalks safe this year—they did an amazing job!

Here’s a look at some of our favourite moments from this year’s patroller parties:
