Bike Helmets

In conjunction with the Sanford Police Department, we are working to help children ride safer. When a Sanford Police Officer sees a child riding without a recognized bicycle helmet, he will stop the child and issue him/her a special citation. This citation must then be taken to the Sanford Fire Department main station at 1303 S. French Avenue, to be exchanged for a helmet. Failure to do so will result in a fine for the child and his/her guardian. This is a one time only opportunity.

A Safe Place for Kid's

Any store, restaurant, or building displaying the yellow and black sign shown here, is a "SAFE PLACE". The Sanford Fire Department is a "SAFE PLACE". Any kid, boy or girl, any age, can go to any Sanford Fire station, as well as many other fire stations in Seminole County if they need help. Ask someone who works there to help you...we know what to do. Help is free and confidential. In conjunction with Boys Town.
