Helmet Discount Weekend is Coming Up
For the 8th year, Ottawa Public Health has partnered with sports retailers across Ottawa to bring residents a discount on helmets. Helmets can help prevent serious brain and head injuries by absorbing the force from a fall or hit to the head. Helmets are recommended for activities such as skateboarding, rollerblading, biking, sledding, skating, skiing and snowboarding. In Ontario, it is mandatory for anyone under the age of 18 to wear a certified helmet while riding a bicycle (Highway Traffic Act: https://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/900610)
The Helmet Discount Weekend is Saturday May 4 and Sunday May 5, 2019
For a list of participating retailers, please visit the Ottawa Public Health website
Pour une 8e année de suite, Santé publique Ottawa collabore avec des détaillants d’articles de sport partout à Ottawa pour offrir aux résidents de la capitale nationale un rabais sur les casques protecteurs. Les casques peuvent aider à prévenir de graves blessures à la tête et au cerveau en amortissant le choc subi à la suite d’une chute ou d’un coup à la tête. Le port du casque est recommandé pour les activités comme la planche à roulettes, le patin à roues alignées, le vélo, la glissade, le patin, le ski et la planche à neige. En Ontario, toute personne de moins de 18 ans qui roule à vélo est tenue de porter un casque de vélo approuvé. (Code de la route : https://www.ontario.ca/fr/lois/reglement/900610)
La fin de semaine de rabais sur les casques aura lieu le samedi 4 mai et le dimanche 5 mai
