Ice Cream Citations!
This happens to be where I live. Does your community do this or something similar in the summer, or year-round?Apex North Carolina’s Police Department is cracking down on kids who are practicing bicycle/skateboard/scooter safety!
Per their Facebook page:
“This young lady was issued a citation today. Yes, I said a citation! She was issued a citation for wearing her bike helmet and riding safely! What does her ticket get her???? A FREE ice cream cone!”
This summer officers will be issuing “citations” to kids 12 and under who are practicing safety. The citation entitles them to a free ice cream cone for being smart and riding safe!"

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
