Classes will dismiss today for Pella and Pella Christian students, and the Pella Police Department is reminding citizens to use extra caution when driving through the community during the summer months.
Lt. Paul Haase says to pay attention while driving, especially with an increase in pedestrian and bike traffic. Haase says this weekend will also be busy with graduation celebrations and Memorial Day gatherings. Haase reminds citizens to always wear a seat belt, obey posted traffic laws, and to never drive distracted or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
