Six-year-old Jaedyn listens to instructions from Officer Kevin DeFelice during a bike safety course this morning at Williams Park.
The course is the second of five conducted by the city at Batavia's five municipal parks as part of the summer rec programs.
The children participating learn the rules of the road, proper hand signals and the importance of wearing bike safety helmets.
At the end of the course, they receive a certificate that makes them eligible for a free helmet, courtesy of the Batavia Lions Club, which they can pick up at Adam Miller Toy and Bicycle.
The course today was conducted by DeFelice, Det. Rich Schauf and Toni Funke, program coordinator for the Youth Bureau.
