In addition, the Henry County Sheriff’s Office will be there to fingerprint kids and provide parents with an ID kit. They also will be giving away some bike helmets for kids. The Mt. Pleasant Police Department, Mt. Pleasant Fire Department, Iowa DNR, Iowa State Patrol, and Henry County EMS also will have activities promoting summer safety topics.
This free event is sponsored in part by the Enhance Henry County Community Foundation with donations from Hy-Vee, Walmart, and Walmart Distribution Center.
In case of rain, the event will be postponed until Sunday June 8th. For more information and updates visit Facebook.com/HealthyHenryCounty or call Kelly Carr at 319-385-0779.
