Free Car Seat Checkup. Sunday October 30th, 11am -2pm at the Dollar Tree at Sycamore Terrace, 2191 S. St. Rd. 46.

<p>Is your child traveling safely?</p>

<p><strong>Did you know that 4 out of 5 car seats are misused!</strong></p>

<p>Have you ever asked any of these questions?</p>

<p><strong>Is my child in</strong><strong> the correct child restraint?</strong></p>

<p><strong>How long does my child have to ride in a car seat?</strong></p>

<p><strong>Is this car seat safe to use?</strong></p>

<p><strong>How can I be sure that my child is buckled up properly every time?</strong></p>

<p>If so, then come to a free car seat checkup event at the Dollar Tree in Sycamore Terrace (2191 S. State Road 46, Terre Haute, In.) on Sunday October 30th from 11am - 2pm.&nbsp; We will have numerous Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians on hand to check the installation of your child&#39;s seat to ensure that they are traveling as safely as possible.&nbsp; The check is open to anyone who may find themselves transporting children.&nbsp; The goal of the check is to ensure that every child traveling on the road is in the correct seat and that seat is correctly installed.&nbsp; Installing a car seat correctly can be a challenge.&nbsp; Our technicians will be available to teach caregivers through the steps needed to ensure they are able to use and install a car seat on their own.</p>

<p>This clinic is sponsored by: Chances and Services for Youth (C.A.S.Y.), Union Hospital, Safe Kids of Vigo County, Riley Fire Department and Honey Creek Fire Department.</p>
