The Rock Spring Police Department received a $1,600 donation toward the purchase of bicycle helmets along with 149 bicycle helmets from the Sweetwater County Brain Injury Support Group. The Rock Spring Police Department and Sweetwater County Brain Injury Support Group mutually decided to combine resources in the effort to provide bicycle helmets at no cost to children in the community. The goal is to decrease traumatic brain injuries with the use of fitted bicycle helmets. Eight year old Daylan Smith, who is the reigning Wyoming State Supreme Queen, Wyoming Western States Dreams Pageant, raised $400.00 of the Sweetwater County Brain Injury Support Group donation. The Rock Spring Police Department, Sweetwater County Brain Injury Support Group, and Ms. Smith will be providing helmets to the public during family day at the Sweetwater County Fair on Wednesday, from 10:30 AM – 4:00 PM.
