Early Head Start Bicycle Safety Clinic

Injury Free Coalition for Kids

Date: Wed, May 22, 2002
Time: 11am-1pm

Location: CHOP Early Head Start
Organizer/Sponsor: David Holtzman

The Safety Clinics focus on the importance of wearing a properly fitting helmet every time you ride a bike, scooter, rollerblades, or skateboard. We also talk about other ways to be safe while riding including what to wear, where to ride, important traffic signs and hand signals to know, and tips on riding on streets that are crowded with moving and parked cars, pedestrians, and other obstacles.

Depending upon the venue, children will receive a free, individually fitted helmet from IFCK Philadelphia. Also, if space permits we will hold a Safety Clinic outside where kids can practice several cycling skills that are important in staying safe.
