AUGUSTA COUNTY, VA (Rocktown Now) — The Virginia Department of Health and ChildCare Aware are offering free Child Car Seat Safety Check-Ups at an event this week in Augusta County.

Sometimes parents are uncertain if they have installed their child’s car seat correctly or if the seat has expired or been recalled.

Augusta County Fire and Rescue will be on hand this Friday at the Government Center parking lot in Verona to help parents be sure by checking childcare seats for safety – free of charge.

Swing by the south parking lot near the Parks and Recreation Department any time between 10 and noon.

No appointment is necessary.
