Holly Goodrich, Maria Preciado, and Emily Warming have been working together to improve the safety of the children in the community through their monthly Car Seat Safety events. Below are some highlights from last Friday's event. Contact one of them with any questions.
* We had a total of 8 appointments/families we helped
* We gave out 12 brand new car seats - 7 rear facing convertible seats, 4 forward facing harness seats, and 1 belt positioning booster seat
* We fixed 2 seats that were installed improperly
* Got rid of 2 recalled car seats
* Put 4 children into car seats that came into the event UNRESTRAINED
* Took 5 children out of car seats that they had outgrown and put them into properly fitted seats (NOTE, these were ALL Infant Only seats that the children were in and weighed more than the manufacturers limit)
* Overall, 14 children, including an unborn baby left our event safely in the car!
