Safe Kids Henderson-Vance having Safety Seat check on Saturday September 21st


Safe Kids Henderson – Vance Coalition will be sponsoring a Free Child Passenger Safety Car Seat Clinic. This event will be at Chestnut Street and Breckenridge Street on Saturday September 21, 2013 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Please Come out and support us. Seats will be available for those parents are in need of a child safety seat today. We are asking a donation of $40.00 for seats. The donations will help buy more seats so we can have more car seat checks.

We will be assisting parents in correctly installing their child safety seats. An alarming number children are not properly restrained while riding in vehicles; according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, roughly three out of four child safety seats are used incorrectly. By educating parents and caregivers about child passenger safety, this event will help prevent motor vehicle injuries among children.

If you need more information please call Lt. Irvin Robinson at 252- 431-6061, Sgt. Angela Feingold at 252-430-3165 or Sgt. Jessica West at 252-431-6070 of the Henderson Police Department.
