Saturday, June 18, 2011
Time: 12-3:00pm
The Johnston Police Department will offer two free services for the
safety of children during the Johnston Green Days celebration on the
afternoon of Saturday, June 18, 2011. Officers will be available for the Kid
Pix identification program, and a Child Safety Seat Inspection. They
will be inside the Johnston Public Library, 6700 Merle Hay Road.
Kid Pix offers an opportunity for parents to obtain a laminated photo
identification card of their child. The purpose of the identification
card is so that parents have a current and accurate identification of
their child on hand that can be provided to authorities for
identification purposes should their child become missing. The
identification includes the child’s name, date of birth, physical
description and photograph (taken at the booth). The card is developed
at the Kid Pix booth and is provided to parents while they wait.
Depending on demand, the entire process takes approximately 10 minutes
to complete.
The Child Safety Seat Inspection offers parents an opportunity to ensure
their child’s car seat is properly installed in their vehicle.
Installation of these seats is often complicated and, as a result, many
of the seats are incorrectly installed. The assisting officer has been
nationally certified in the installation process and will ensure that
the safety seats are correctly installed in the vehicle. The officer can
also provide recommendations on which style and brand of safety seats
are best for a specific child. Depending on the style of vehicle
involved, the entire process takes approximately 20 minutes to complete.
