The third annual Safe Kids Day was a tremendous success! Hundreds of children and parents came out to receive valuable information on health and safety from over 35 presenters. There were emergency vehicles, a K-9 Unit demonstration, a moon-bounce, clowns and great music!

This year we partnered with the Bon Secours Health Center in Virginia Beach to help share their one-year anniversarywith them. To help them celebrate, we moved the location of Safe Kids Day to their new Medical Center off South Plaza Trail, at 828 Health Way. Their new facility was perfect for all of the fun, games, music and more to promote the safety and health of our children.
