Burlington Gives Back Community Safety Day

According the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, three out of four car seats are not used correctly, needlessly exposing children to an increased risk of critical injury.

Since navigating the world of child safety and the wealth of resources available can be confusing and overwhelming, Burlington is holding a free community safety day in Richmond on Saturday, Oct. 18.

In partnership with the Chesterfield Police Department, Fire Department and Sheriff, the free event will include car seat safety checks, child fingerprinting, fire safety tips and additional resources for interested parents at a fun and educational event for both parents and kids.
