Officials from the Anacortes Police Department, Anacortes Fire Department, Skagit County Sheriff’s Office and Washington State Patrol were at Whitney Early Childhood Education Center Friday during a bike rode to make sure the kids’ helmets were on correctly and teach them some riding maneuvers.

The preschoolers rode in circles, practiced stopping at a stop sign and threaded their way through bright orange cones.
