🚶♀️🚲 One week until International Walk to School Day!
On Wednesday, October 7, students, families, and staff at Middleton Elementary School will celebrate International Walk to School Day by walking, biking, and rolling to school. 🎉
The event is part of Sherwood’s ongoing Safe Routes to School program, which works to make it safer and easier for students to walk and bike to school.
One of the newest safety improvements near Middleton Elementary is the Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon at SW Sunset Boulevard and SW Timbrel Lane. The beacon helps provide a safer way for students and families to cross Sunset Boulevard.
If you're driving near Middleton Elementary on the morning of October 7, please plan for increased pedestrian activity:
🔸 Slow down and obey school zone speed limits
🔸 Watch for students walking, biking, and rolling
🔸 Stop when the pedestrian beacon is activated
🔸 Stay alert and avoid distractions
🔸 Allow a little extra time for your morning commute
Let's help make sure everyone gets to school safely!

🌟 Women-Owned Business Spotlight: Birdie Hugs
Sherwood is known for being a great place to raise a family. 💕 And we’re proud to spotlight a local woman-owned business that is helping make that possible for families in our community.
Located off Century Drive, Birdie Hugs is a heart-centered, holistic preschool and pre-kindergarten program serving children ages 6 weeks to 12 years old.
We asked Birdie Hugs’ owner what inspired her to start the business, and her answer was simple: the children themselves. ❤️
Her vision was to create more than a childcare program - a place where children feel safe to be curious, supported enough to be themselves, and encouraged to discover what they’re capable of.
At Birdie Hugs, the focus is on the whole child through early learning, independence, mindfulness, movement, affirmations, creativity and emotional development. Every part of the environment is intentionally designed to help children feel safe, supported and confident as they grow.
And her advice to women considering starting their own business?
✨ Don’t wait until everything is perfect to begin. Start with what you have, learn as you go, and trust yourself enough to take the first step.
We’re proud to celebrate the women-owned businesses that contribute to the strength, character and community of Sherwood.

🎺 A year ago, Sherwood celebrated!
Last September, our community came together for the official grand opening of the Sherwood Highway 99W Pedestrian Bridge.
The celebration included a ribbon cutting, community members, City leaders, and a special performance by the Sherwood High School marching band. 🎶✂️
The grand opening marked the completion of a major infrastructure project and an important new connection across 99W.
As we look back on that day, we’re sharing a few photos from the celebration. Were you there for the grand opening?
Take a look back at the day we officially celebrated the bridge.

🐾 Celebrating Women-Owned Businesses in Sherwood!
In honor of American Business Women’s Day, we’re proud to spotlight The Dog Stop, a local, woman-owned business and Sherwood Broadband customer!
Located near Langer’s Entertainment Center, The Dog Stop, owned by Cindy Smith, offers boarding, daycare, grooming and training for your four-legged family members. 🐶
Cindy’s inspiration for starting The Dog Stop came directly from being a dog mom for 40 years. She wanted to create a place where dogs could receive the love, attention and care they deserve.
Her advice to women considering starting their own business?
“Take the chance in yourself and always offer the best to your customers.”
Cindy also wants Sherwood families to know that The Dog Stop is committed to transparency and exceptional care. Their open-door policy allows clients to tour the facility, including the play yards, kennel suites and grooming salons.
We’re proud to support local businesses like The Dog Stop and the women who make our community stronger! 💖
📍 Stop by The Dog Stop and give Cindy and her team a chance to show you how they care for your pups!
