HEADSTRONG - August Newsletter

Thank you to our dedicated Bikes, Blades & Boards Committee: Christina Versteeg, Jennifer Hendry, Katie George, Rachel Kleiman, & Rachel Willard. Special thank you to all volunteers that conducted Bikes, Blades & Boards presentations throughout April, May & June. Due to the increasing demand of our Injury Prevention Program, we will kick off our presentations in September and run throughout the entire academic year. We are looking forward to another successful year of educating students on the importance of helmet safety and injury prevention. Interested in getting involved? Visit our website.
