So yesterday I was out for a bike ride with the kids. As we rode past a school parking lot, we spotted a Grove City police officer. The kids waved, and he waved back. Then he started to follow us. "Oh no", I thought..."What did I do?" I definitely wasn't speeding, and I didn't fail to signal, so what was up? The officer pulled up alongside us and proceeded to give the kids vouchers for free ice cream at participating Dairy Queen locations just because he "caught" them with their bicycle helmets on! Turns out it's part of a bicycle safety campaign sponsored by Nationwide Children's Hospital, DQ and local law-enforcement. But it's not just in Grove City...it's all over central Ohio. So if you're out and about on your bike this summer, make sure the kids wear their helmets...they may get free ice cream for it! Oh, and grown-ups get a free blizzard for wearing theirs too!
We should have a great day today.
