Be safe, Have fun & BE SAFE again...

People around the country will use fireworks this July 4th. The most important thing is to respect how powerful they are and use them safely.

- Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks, including sparklers. Sparklers burn at temperatures of about 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit—hot enough to melt some metals.
- Never launch fireworks off your body,
- Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy, in case of fire or other mishap.
- Make sure fireworks are legal in your area, and only purchase and set off fireworks that are labeled for consumer (not professional) use.
- Never use fireworks while impaired by alcohol or drugs.

With hurricane season upon us, it's time to prepare and stay safe together! 🏠⛑️

Don't wait for the storm to hit before taking action. Let's get ahead of the game and make sure our families and communities are ready. Here are some essential tips to remember:

✔️ Create an emergency kit: Stock up on non-perishable food, water, batteries, flashlights, a first aid kit, and any necessary medications. Don't forget important documents like insurance papers and identification.

✔️ Develop a family emergency plan: Discuss evacuation routes, designated meeting points, and communication methods with your loved ones. Ensure everyone knows what to do and where to go in case of an emergency.

✔️ Secure your home: Trim trees and remove any loose branches that could pose a threat. Reinforce windows, doors, and garage doors. Consider installing hurricane shutters or plywood to protect against strong winds.

✔️ Stay informed: Keep a close eye on weather updates and official announcements from local authorities. Follow reliable sources and download weather apps to receive alerts. Knowledge is power when it comes to staying safe.

✔️ Prepare for power outages: Have a backup generator or alternative power sources ready. Charge your mobile devices and have spare batteries for essential electronics. Remember to unplug sensitive equipment during storms.

✔️ Check your insurance: Review your homeowner's or renter's insurance policy to ensure it covers potential hurricane-related damages. Consider adding flood insurance if you're in a high-risk area.

✔️ Help your neighbors: Look out for one another. Offer assistance to those who may need help with preparations or evacuations. Together, we can make a difference and support our community during challenging times.

Remember, preparedness is key to staying safe during hurricane season. Let's spread the word, share these tips, and help our friends and family be ready for anything! 💪🌪️🌎
