Safety First

Yesterday we took the boys to the annual Bike Safety Rodeo. The Kiwanas have been putting this on for a loooong time- as I remember my Dad taking me when I was in my tween years. It was broken up into nine different stations which included bike repairs, helmet fitting (and you could buy a helmet for $5!), crossing the road, avoiding "rocks", watching for cars, etc. Also at the school that day they were doing a free child identification program inside the school that included fingerprinting, DNA, pictures, and videos- all the materials given to the parents at the end for their own records just in case, god forbid, anything ever happened. It ended up being a long morning but both boys did really well! Of course here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure.
