Wagner Communities That Care hosted a Rollin’ Into Summer Safely event on May 1. The purpose of the event was to promote helmet safety while using any type of wheels and to meet law enforcement. The event started during school with all 194 Wagner Community School students grades 2-4, receiving a free helmet. Each student was fitted for a helmet with help from the school’s Hope Squad members, law enforcement and Wagner CTC members.
