The Pilot Club of the Halifax Area presented a "BrainMinders" brain safety program to young summer camp attendees at the Allen Chapel AME Church in Daytona Beach on Thursday, Aug. 8.
Pilot Club members provided a puppet skit featuring the "BrainMinder Buddies." The puppet show structures injury prevention “Play Safe, Play Smart” through the story “Wise Old Owl and his Fuzzy, Funny, Smart and Sunny BrainMinder Buddies."
"BrainMinders" is Pilot International’s signature program, which focuses on traumatic brain injury and brain disorders and how to prevent injuries.
Each camper, plus their counselors, were able to be fitted with a new helmet to keep them safe on their bicycles.
Campers also received coloring books, activity booklets and literature from Pilot International as well as the Florida Department of Transportation to reinforce the focus of brain safety.
The helmets were obtained free from FDOT’s program PedBike, Florida’s Pedestrian & Bicycling Safety Resource Center.
