The Whitestown Police now has two Child Passenger Safety Techicians to assist residents in providing the safest possible passenger status for their children. Officer Timothy Barone and Officer Frank McCully recently completed their triaining in the National Child Passenger Safety Certificaiton Course held in Lowville NY. At this time the Whitestown Department is offering the opportunity for residents to have instruction in the proper installation of child restraint seats and inspection of their exisiting seats.
The Chief has applied for a Child Passenger Safety Incentive Grant through the State of New York. With the current cerified officers we now will qualify to apply for funds to provide child seats to residents. Please call the Whitestown Police Department at 736-1100 to set up an appointment for the proper installion instruction and safety check of your existing child seats.
Once the Town receives approval for the state grant funds then times and dates will be set up for safety checks and distributions of child safety seats to families in need. For additional information, please contact Officer Barone or Officer McCully at 736-1100.
