We're so grateful to the West Stafford Volunteer Fire Department, and the other technicians that volunteered their time, for hosting a Car Seat Clinic this week. We had many families able to rest easier knowing their child was in a safely installed car seat. We'll be working with them to host another clinic in the Fall!
