Wishing you a safe and happy July 4th! Enjoy the holiday. Here are some tips to make it a memorable weekend for all the right reasons.

- Drink plenty of water to beat the possibility of heat related injury.
- If you are doing any outdoor work, take frequent breaks.
- Be sure to apply sunscreen frequently to avoid a burn.
- Leave the fireworks to the professionals.
- Call 911 right away if someone is showing signs of heat stress (weak, sweating profusely, nauseous, rapid pulse), or worse (not sweating, feels very hot to touch, confused, lapsing in and out of consciousness).
