The event will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Southington Calendar House, 388 Pleasant St., with vehicle inspections conducted on a first-come, first-served basis.
Certified child passenger safety seat officers will inspect car seats for recalls and expiration dates, verify the child’s height and weight requirements, adjust harness straps and assist with proper installation, according to organizers.
Officials said any installation or usage issues identified during the event will be corrected, and police will not issue tickets for seat violations discovered during inspections.
The event also aims to educate families about Connecticut’s child car seat laws, which require:
