In an effort to enhance community safety, the Snoqualmie Police and Fire Departments are urging residents to wear helmets while biking.

Helmets serve a crucial role in safeguarding riders from severe head injuries, making their use imperative during both summer and year-round biking. The initiative emphasizes that helmet safety is not just for children; adults are also encouraged to adopt this practice to protect themselves while riding. By raising awareness about the dangers associated with biking without a helmet, the departments aim to instill responsible biking habits throughout the community.

The campaign is part of a broader public safety effort, aligning with the departments' commitment to health and well-being. Residents are reminded that a simple action like wearing a helmet can prevent serious injuries. This initiative seeks to create a safer biking environment for everyone in Snoqualmie.
