Seat Check Saturday
Seat Check Saturday is a Nationwide event held annually to help parents and caregivers connect with Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians. This year CCHD is partnering with Crawford Memorial Hospital, Crawford Clark Prevention Initiative, and the Robinson Fire Protection District to offer free car seat safety inspections. The event will be held Saturday, September 23, 2023 from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m. on the south side of the Robinson Walmart parking lot. As many as 4 out of 5 car seats are thought to be installed or used incorrectly, this can have a huge impact on your child's safety in the event of a crash. In addition to this event, CCHD has several certified car seat technicians on staff and offer free car seat inspections daily during our regular business hours. For more information please give us a call at 618-544-8798.
