Safe Kids Super Saturday
Led by the Regional Medical Center and RMC’s Foundation, Safe Kids Super Saturday is an annual FREE fun, informative and interactive “kid-friendly” event designed to promote safety, a healthy lifestyle and accident prevention to children and their parents.
Safe Kids Super Saturday has proven to be a very successful vehicle to disseminate information about accident prevention and health promotion and offers the opportunity for residents in the tri-county area to be made aware of the many resources available to them. All of these educational outreach efforts are highlighted through the fun approach and activities at Super Saturday each year. The combined efforts of many public service organizations and private enterprises that cooperate and contribute in major ways plays a major role in the the success of this annual Safe Kids event. The Regional Medical Center, primary sponsor, recognizes that prevention is critical to the health and wellbeing of the neighbors it serves.
