Free Child Safety Fair Set for Friday and Saturday | Parents & kids

Parents will get a chance to have their children fingerprinted for free at an event Friday and Saturday in Henderson.

The Keeping Kids Safe Project is hosting a free child safety fair from 3 to 7 p.m. Friday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Ford Country, 280 North Gibson Road.

The group tours the country providing free FBI-quality digital fingerprints. Besides the fingerprints, they have invited local safety organizations and law enforcement to provide information to parents on how to keep their kids safe.

“Police officials say time is crucial in the recovery of missing children.  One major problem that costs precious time is gathering current photographs, fingerprints, and personal information to assist law enforcement agencies,” says National Director of S.I.P. Kids, Lytishya Borglum.
