With February leaving cold snow everywhere, we are sure you are ready for March, which is just months away from summer!

 
 
 
 

March, April and May bring lots of wet, cold rain. Do you have a flood plan planned for your family and your home? If not, it’s a good time to get started on one. Ready.gov at http://www.ready.gov/floods has tons of useful information. From what to make sure you have on hand before a storm, to what to do after a flood hits your home. And while you’re at it, check out other parts of the ready.gov site and prepare for severe weather safety and tsunami safety. It’s never a bad idea to be prepared – which is why we recommend signing up for FEMA’s 2015 National Seasonal Preparedness calendar at https://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/100679

 
 
 
 

This month is National Red Cross month. We are sure you have heard of the Red Cross, but do you know what they do? Did you know they are so much more than a blood drive? They offer assistance and knowledge to disaster victims and help them rebuild their lives. Read more about what they do at http://www.redcross.org/what-we-do So, What can you do to help?

Visit http://www.redcross.org/support for more ways you or your family can help!
 
 
 
 

March means three things: Spring break, St. Patrick’s Day and March Madness basketball. All are equally as fun! Whether you are traveling for spring break or travelling to a basketball game, be safe. We cannot stress enough how unsafe it is to text and drive! Turn your phone off or put it in a purse or glove box when you are driving! And since all three “holidays” usually have some kind of drinking involved, we want to touch base, yet again, with how important it is to stay safe!

  • Eat food prior to and during the festivities and alternate non- alcoholic beverages with alcoholic beverages
  • If planning to ride home with someone else, designate a sober driver before any drinking begins and if impaired, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member or use public transportation.
  • If a drunk driver is spotted on the road, don't hesitate to contact local law enforcement


For all things SPRING BREAK related, we HIGHLY recommend you check out this site http://www.safespringbreak.org/safety-tips/ - they have everything spring break from traveling safety, hotel safety to ATM safety. Share with your loved ones today!

 
 
 
 

Did you know? More than 2 million poisonings are reported each year to the 57 poison control centers across the country. More than 90 percent of these poisonings occur in the home. The majority of non-fatal poisonings occur in children younger than six years old. And, poisonings are one of the leading causes of death among adults. This sad fact of reality is from http://poisonprevention.org/index.htm.
March is National poison prevention month and we want to make sure you or someone you know is NOT a statistic. Get the facts http://www.cdc.gov/HealthyHomes/ByTopic/Poisoning.html
