How do you decorate your bike?

It was a great day to decorate a bicycle.  That's what Jade Jager and about 200 other children thought when they attended the Bicycle Rodeo on June 16 put on by the Optimist Club of Brookings, South Dakota and the Brooking Police Department. 

A bicycle track was set up near the Brookings Library and the children were provided safety tips, riding lessons and helmets.  They were able to watch a safety video and talk with the officers.  The VFW provided American flags which many students used for decorations on their bike.
