Children will become safer, healthier, and more productive citizens on October 13th, 2012
On Saturday, October 13th, 2012 our community will participate in the seventeenth annual “Kids Day America,” a Health, Safety, and Environmental Awareness Day. Dr. Justin Favorite will be sponsoring the event locally from 12:00 noon until 3:00 pm at the Jones Center of Springdale.
The event is FREE to everyone and will provide essential information on crime prevention, internet and child safety, and environmental awareness. The Springdale Police Department will donate special child ID cards to every child who attends, and will be on hand to provide FREE fingerprinting of all the children.
Additionally, there will be special appearances by “McGruff” The Crime Dog and “Sparky” the Fire Dog, who will be joined by Strike from the Northwest Arkansas Naturals. The Fire Department is bringing a fire truck and will teach fire safety tips to the children. Dr. Favorite will provide FREE health screenings, and will be distributing vital information on disease prevention and health promotion. There also will be free Vision Screenings provided by Dr. Kimberly Owens from Owen’s Optometry, and Dr. William T Mahon and Dr. Jim Hunt from My Village Pediatric Dentistry performing dental screenings for the children
We will also provide free balloons, food and fun for everyone. There will be special giveaway’s and free prize drawings every half-hour! In addition we are raising money for the Children’s Advocacy Center of Benton County.
