Winners of Shelburne Police Bike Safety Campaign announced at Dufferin Mutual Insurance
July 22, 2016 · 0 Comments
Every year, Shelburne Police hosts a bicycle safety campaign designed to help promote the use of helmets and safe cycling.
During the month of June, Shelburne Police watch for children riding their bikes in a safe manner and wearing helmets.
The officers then enter these safe young cyclists into a draw for a new bike.
Every year on July 1 during the Shelburne Canada Day Festivities, one boy’s name and one girl’s name are drawn to win a new bike.
The bikes are sponsored every year by Dufferin Mutual Insurance Company.
This year the winner of the boy’s bike is four-year-old Liam Ward, and the winner of the girl’s bike is eleven-year-old Madison Ricci. Congratulations to both!
Shelburne Police thank Dufferin Mutual Insurance Company for their on-going support for this safety campaign.
Shelburne Police remind all cyclists to wear a helmet, and ride safely!
