Sharon Police Looking To Host 'Biking With A Cop' Events

SHARON, MA — Sharon police are looking to organize more "Biking with a Cop" events after a successful first day with elementary school students in the neighborhood of East Elementary.

Police credited community leader Jill Gold with helping organize the first event, which kicked off with a discussion of safety recommendations, riding techniques and a group ride through a bicycle obstacle course.

The group then went on a ride through the neighborhood that ended back at the school for Crescent Ridge ice cream.

"During these unprecedented times, it was very nice to enjoy some classic summer activities," Sharon police said. "A big thanks to everyone who came out."

Police said they would like to hold more similar rides. Those interested in organizing a safe and socially distanced ride through your neighborhood can contact cdumais@townofsharon.org.
