Lee County children participate in International Walk to School Day
Safe Kids Lee/Collier Counties and other members of the Lee County Injury Prevention Coalition will join local school children and FedEx volunteers on Wednesday, Oct. 3 to raise awareness about pedestrian safety on International Walk to School Day.
