Through August 31, officers will be on the lookout for kids doing "Cool Moves," including

  • looking both ways before crossing the street
  • wearing a helmet while biking or skateboarding
  • using hand signals while riding a bike
  • using crosswalks

Those practicing these safe behaviors will receive a ticket for a free ice cream cone from participating partners. This year, tickets can be redeemed at Cece's Froyo, Menchie's Frozen Yogurt, Andy's Frozen Custard and Dairy Queen.
