Based on a study report issued by the Institute for Highway Safety and the
University of Michigan, 13 kid booster seats received a poor

The seats are generally used for children ages 4 to 8.

products:
Compass B505, Compass B510, Cosco/Dorel
Traveler, Evenflo Big Kid Confidence, Safety Angel Ride Ryte,
Cosco/Dorel Alpha Omega, Cosco/Dorel (Eddie Bauer) Summit, Cosco

Safe Summer
We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable summer. As we approach Mother's day, Memorial day and Father's day, we remind people as we all gather around with family to talk and be prepared should tragedy occur. The summer months are also hurricane season along the gulf coast, so its important to update your records and keep them in a safe place. Wills, insurance papers and other important documents need to be updated.
As we gather for the special family events, consider talking about living wills, medical directives or other plans should you or a loved one become incapacitated. Which family members are aware of your wishes should an accident occur? A living will can express your wishes to your family and doctors.
