Thousands of helmets gifted to Brazos Valley second-graders

By Warren Vause | wwwkbtx.com

Hard Hats for Little Heads was back at Texas A&M’s Reed Arena and excitement was not in short supply.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KBTX) – Thousands of second-graders from the Brazos Valley attended Hard Hats for Little Heads on Monday, April 17. The event promotes child safety by wearing a helmet.

It included relay races and presentations by Texas A&M student-athletes to show the importance of preventing head injuries.

“It can cause up to eighty percent of morbidity/mortality in children versus a broken arm, so if we can prevent that or reduce that risk by any chance, then we’ve made a big difference in the community. Not only in the child and for that family, but …

More steep hills: Rolling-Wood to Johnson City

Monday April 17, 2023, 38 miles (61 km) – Total so far: 1,596 miles (2,569 km) I guess that I still don’t have my climbing legs yet since I only did 38 miles today with about 2500 feet of climbing. I know that I can do more and I’m not going to make any excuses. I just didn’t feel very strong today. I slept and ate well last evening and have been hydrating well. I will admit that I have a minor heart condition and it has flared up in the past few days. The heart condition is not life threatening and I have lived with it for years. The recent string of strenuous exercise has aggravated it, so I may take it a bit easier and do shorter days while in these steep hills. I can still move forward. Health first!

Since I had to go a bit off course in Austin to get to a hotel, that put me in a LOT of traffic and a major construction area for the first 4 miles as I went west. It was a bit hair raising and I used all my skills to get through there as safe as possible. It sure was nice to see the …
