The Adel Police Department will participate in two events this morning in Adel.

The Adel Rotary Club will host the Seventh Annual Safety Bike Rodeo from 9-11 a.m. in the Adel City Hall parking lot, 301 S 10th Street.

The free event is geared for children ages 5-12. The Rotary Club says free bike and helmet inspections will be conducted by Bike World. Participants will learn about bike safety from members of the Adel Police Department.

There will also be a prize drawing giving participants chances to win gift cards for bikes and helmets, Adel Family Fun Center bowling, Billy’s Ice Cream cones, Domino’s pizzas and Subway sandwiches.

Dennis Leininger says Blue Kindness will host Cops Love Dogs from 9 a.m. to noon at the Pavilion, 10th and Main. He invites Adel community members to bring their dogs and enjoy meeting members of the police department along with their pups. 

Leininger adds that the event will also feature free microchipping along with free coffee and drinks from The Morning Grind, photos, paw prints, local dog treats and a drawing to win a free grooming from Groovy Grooms.
