the age of .15 died from accidental
death, 50,000 sustained perma-
nent disabilities, 600,000 were
hospitalized and almost 16 million
were seen in emergency rooms.
The sad commentary is that these
accidents were needless.
Sussex County Safe Kids Day
activities will focus attention on
the solutions to prevent childhood
injuries. Needless to say, every-
one needs to do as much as they
can at home, in schools, day care
centers, recreational programs,
places of work and in communi-
ties to address the issues.
The theme for this year's event
is "Gear Up for Safety." The
'Gear Up Games' will be a fun
and educational safety experience
that will teach childhood injury
prevention by practical exercises.
Participants will also learn from
dynamic speakers, exhibits, pup-
pet shows, costumed characters
and demonstrations. Activities in-
clude fingerprinting, safety town,
clowns, hot air balloon, pony and
little train rides, a petting zoo and
youth entertainment. This year's
event will also feature a magician
whose presentation is titled "I Am
a 10." He will instill strong, posi-
tive feelings of self-esteem, self-
worth and family values in his
young audiences.
Other activities include a 911
high demo, a lawn equipment
safety skit, Millsboro's Fire Safe-
ty House, children's garden, sev-
eral rides, face painting and much
more.
