Stay Safe This July 4th!

As you celebrate Independence Day with family and friends, it's important to keep safety top of mind to ensure a fun and accident-free holiday. Whether you're enjoying fireworks, grilling, or spending time outdoors, following these safety precautions can help protect you and your loved ones.

• Fireworks Safety:

  • Only use legal fireworks and follow local laws and regulations.

  • Have a bucket of water or a hose nearby in case of fire.

  • Never allow young children to handle fireworks.

  • Light fireworks one at a time and move away quickly.

  • Never try to relight a “dud” firework; wait 20 minutes and then soak it in water.

  • Keep spectators at a safe distance from where fireworks are being ignited.

• Grilling Safety:

  • Keep grills outdoors and away from structures, trees, and flammable materials.

  • Never leave a grill unattended while in use.

  • Use long-handled tools to avoid burns.

  • Keep a fire extinguisher or water source nearby.

  • Make sure charcoal is completely cooled before disposing of ashes.

• Sun and Heat Protection:

  • Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

  • Wear sunscreen, hats, and protective clothing.

  • Take breaks in shaded or air-conditioned areas.

• Water Safety:

  • Always supervise children near pools, lakes, or other bodies of water.

  • Use life jackets when boating or participating in water sports.

  • Know CPR and basic first aid in case of emergencies.

• General Crowd Safety:

  • Keep an eye on children in crowded areas.

  • Have a designated meeting spot if someone gets lost.

  • Be aware of your surroundings and report suspicious activity.
