Two officers from the Dalton Police Department's Bike Unit spent part of their morning on Tuesday with the Youth Camp at the Bradley Wellness Center. Sergeant Mike Wilson and Officer Matt Lane spoke the group of 16 children aged between 5 and 12 years old about bike safety, and also gave out some prizes.
Every camper got pencils and other giveaways from the department, and the two students who answered the most bicycle safety questions correctly each received two new bicycle helmets. The questions covered safety issues like proper safety gear, the way to signal turns, and other safety topics.
The kids also got an up-close look at the police department's bicycles, and one of the department's patrol cars.
