Free health & safety expo, too

Friday night's Chiefs game will feature a health and safety expo, aimed at keeping kids safe.   Lee Livermore, who's chair of the Safe Kids Coalition says the event will focus on things parents can do to keep their children safe.  Falls, he says, are a major cause of injury.  So are improperly fitted car seats, and lack of head protection for bicyclists.  The Advocates for Upstate Medical University will give away --and fit--250 free bike helmets at the game (first come, first served!). 
Attending the game is also free for families---but you must pick up tickets in advance at any Onondaga County Public Library branch.
