Police co-sponsor bicycle rodeo
As Sci-Port Discovery Center hosts Law Enforcement Appreciation Day on Saturday for police officers and their families, kids outside Sci-Port also will be having fun while learning.
The public is invited to participate in a bicycle rodeo, sponsored by the SPD, Northwest Louisiana SAFEKIDS Coalition and Think First of the Ark-La-Tex.
The rodeo takes place in the large parking lot next to Sci-Port and features educational stations for children on bicycle safety, helmet use and other safety tips. Face painting, clowns and police and fire department demonstrations also are planned.
The event runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 11. For more information, call 673-7399.
