SEASONAL SAFETY TIP
Tip #239

When riding bicycles always wear a helmet and when riding at dawn, dusk or night wear reflective clothing and use a headlight and taillight.

When hosting outdoor barbeques always ensure safe grill useage. Keep children away from hot surfaces and flames, and also be sure the coals are cold and the grill shut off before leaving the grill unattended. Avoid grilling with charcoal grills on windy days.

Stay hydrated in the summer heat with water and avoid overexertion on extremely hot days. Save exercise for you and your pet for the cool mornings and evenings.

Watch out for children playing and riding bikes in the streets. Children can be difficult to see and speeds should be slowed when driving through neighborhoods.

Be safe out there!
