Weekly Preparedness Roundup – from Your American Red Cross — Summer Safety Edition

by Cari Roberts, Community Preparedness and Resiliency Manager

I don’t know about you, but summer feels like she’s here and ready to play! Wild weather aside, it’s that time of year when we’re meeting friends at the lake, by the pool, around the backyard BBQ, etc.

To that end – and to ensure that your summer fun stays that way – please see and share the below swimming & grilling tips with your circle of friends. They just might thank you later!

We also want to thank our friends at the American Academy of Pediatrics for a GREAT list of summer safety tips – from bugs to burns and lawn mowers to skateboards, they’ve got some solid advice for you and yours.

Have fun out there (send us some photos of you being safe and yet having a fantastic summer).

See and share these tips!
