Winter helmet offer
Discounted winter sports helmets are for sale at the Marysville Fire District.
The helmets are designed to prevent head injuries during winter activities such as skiing, snowboarding and tubing, Marysville Fire Marshal Tom Maloney said.
The helmet sizes available fit children and most adults. They are $25 each and have lined padding and ear covers.
The helmets are provided through a partnership between the fire district and Safe Kids Snohomish County. Neither organization profits from the sales.
