Groton Block Party


I have given away many helmets, but never as many as this event in one day!

Thanks to the help of Safe Kids of New London County (Thank you Esther) , Groton Police department, Mystic Velos and my new friend Melissa, we educated and donated almost 90 helmets in one event!

Parents received helmets too! Great job leading by example:)

We discussed the effects of brain injuries, how a helmet should fit and the importance of following the rules of the road.

I am so proud to be a part of a community that cares so much about the children. We are so fortunate to have such wonderful and caring adults in our immediate areas.

As for the mystic Velos, GO GIRLS! you rock! What a wonderful team to be a part of.

Hopefully a few of us will be doing a 2 day race in New Hampshire together:)

I'll keep you posted,

Warmest Regards,

Nancy

Family Safety fair...


Thank You, Thank You, Thank You to everyone that helped. The kids had fun and so did the adults:) Stop and Shop was so supportive as well as all my partners in crime: (People's United Bank, Mystic Chamber, Mystic Cycle, The Stonington Police station and Thank you for the smoke house Pawcatuck Fire department)

We made a difference, showed these families that the community DOES care about their children and reinforced the importance of wearing a bike helmet......

Be Well,

Nancy
