Rotary hosts Bike Safety Class

The Rotary Club of Whitehall held its third Bike Safety Class for the third grade children in Whitehall on May 22.

Thanks to a generous grant of $212.50 from the Pipestone Quarry that was awarded in 2017, they were able to pay the Bike Walk Montana their fee; the Whitehall Rotary Club purchased the 26 bicycle helmets that were given to the 26 kids who participated in this class. Participating Rotarians were Ed Handl, Hank King, Karen Burtch, and Millie Baycroft; Melinda Barnes of Bike Walk Montana was the instructor.

Rotary wishes to continue holding this class every spring to provide education and safety to children in the local community and members thank Pipestone Quarry and the Whitehall Elementary School for their partnership in this event. Members wish to continue this class because two of the six areas of focus for Rotary International is providing education and health and safety for children.
