POH Regional Medical Center and the Oxford Fire Department teamed up last week to distribute 350 free bicycle helmets to second-graders at Clear Lake, Lakeville, Daniel Axford and Leonard elementaries.
POH received the helmets thanks to a grant from Priority Health. Dubbed the ‘Safe Wheels & Heels Program,? the goal is to decrease the number of bicycle-related injuries in children. ? Editor C.J. Carnacchio
