Helmets on Heads, a comprehensive national education campaign from Schwinn Bikes, in association with the ThinkFirst National Injury Prevention Foundation, is visiting Balduck Memorial Park in Detroit on Thursday, July 18th. More than 250 members of the Eagle Sports Club will receive a new bicycle helmet courtesy of Schwinn.
Educators from the Beaumont ThinkFirst chapter at Beaumont Hospital Royal Oak in Royal Oak, MI will discuss the importance of wearing a helmet to prevent injuries after which they will fit the kids with a new helmet. Hotdogs, chips and water will also be provided as part of the helmet fitting.
Helmets on Heads is committed to educating one million kids about bike helmet safety over the next 10 years. The organization offers tools and opportunities for educators, local communities and families to get involved and take action in protecting themselves and those around them.
