Contributors

bridgewaterAngela Beagle, the mother of a child killed as a result of a car accident, will speak on distracted driving at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29, in Cole Hall at Bridgewater College.

Beagle’s daughter, Kate, was 19 months old when a teenager drove into a crowd at a neighborhood bus stop, killing her and injuring six others.

Since the accident in 2012, Beagle and her husband, Beryl, have founded Kate’s Krew, a nonprofit that works to prevent distracted driving through awareness, education and advocacy.

The program is free and open to the public.

Bridgewater College is a private, four-year liberal arts college located in the Central Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Founded in 1880, it was the state’s first private, coeducational college. Today, Bridgewater College is home to more than 1,800 undergraduate students.
