Summer tips to keep you and your family safe through the busy summer!

Summer is in full swing now! While enjoying your out door fun, vacationing and traveling with your kids please remember these quick tips!

  • Always lock your parked car to prevent children from climbing in.
  • Never leave infants and small children or even pets in a parked car, even if the windows are open.
  • If you see a child alone and unattended in a car call 911 immediately.
  • Place your pocketbook in the backseat near your child as a reminder.
  • When leaving your car, check to make sure that everyone is out so sleeping children do not get overlooked.

Please take just a few extra minutes for safetys sake! And by all means take time to make extra special memories this summer!
