We had a lively crowd of young people join us and the Police Department for a Bike Safety Rodeo on Saturday, July 24. It was a beautiful day to learn about the rules of the road!! There were 23 young people who received new helmets, safety vests and other gifts for participating as well as the information they need to be safe while riding their bicycles.
We would like to thank Councilwoman Kathy Lantry's office for the grant that funded the helmets, vests, and other give-aways, the Police Bike Patrol and Reserves, SunRay Shopping Center and Bruegger's Bagels for their donations making this event possible. Our Safety Task Force and the Valeri family, in particular, were also vital to this event.
Look what we can do when we work together!! Safety FIRST!!

Thank You District 1 for hosting this event. My kids learned important "rules of the road" and were proud to practice the obstacle course with the St. Paul Police Officers. The event has also been a driving force in getting the whole family out biking together. Thank you again!
