Keep Summer Safe: Make safety part of your summer plans

      Summer means a lot of things to people: school’s out, baseball season, water sports, vacation travels, time to hit the beach or head to the mountains. It can be a blast. But be sure to make safety part of your summer plans, starting with Independence Day celebrations in the coming days. Fireworks can be fun but require caution.
     Also practice safety when grilling or having fun in the sun at the beach. And, no matter what you do or where you go, it will be hot. So be sure to know the signs of heat stress and what to do.
