Submitted on behalf of the Bedford Police Department
Chief Robert Bongiorno is pleased to announce that the Bedford Police Department’s officers will be on the lookout for well-behaved children for the remainder of the summer and through the start of the school year.
Officers will hand out free ice cream coupons — courtesy of Bedford Farms — to kids who are “caught” doing the right thing. Examples include wearing a helmet while riding a bicycle and crossing the street correctly.
“We’re always looking for ways to interact with residents of all ages, and this has traditionally been a fun way to engage with kids in their daily lives,” Lt. James Graham said. “This is also an excellent opportunity to emphasize and reinforce the importance of behaving in a safe and responsible way.”
The coupon can be used at any Bedford Farms shops, which are located in Bedford, Burlington, and Concord.
