Once again Mass in Motion, a non-profit agency geared to promoting health and well being in the community, is holding a free bicycle helmet give-a-way in Fall River. This year’s event will take place during the Flint Farmers’ Market on August 14th, 2018 at Our Lady of Light Band Club at 664 Quarry Street between 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm.
Residents are being asked to bring their bikes, scooters, or skateboards in order to receive a helmet. According to Mass in Motion Coordinator Julianne Kelly eligible residents will be properly fitted for the protective gear by her organization, and ‘Bike Fall River’ workers. In addition, small bicycle repairs will be made upon request, and safety issues surrounding non-motorized recreational vehicles will be discussed.
The event is being sponsored by Mass in Motion; Truesdale Health Foundation; St. Anne’s Hospital Emergency Room, and the Fall River Kiwanis Club. For questions, or eligibility requirements, please contact Ms. Kelly at (508) 324-2405.
