DIRECTORS COMMENT

I am adding a graphic today that gives you info on the signs and difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke. BOTH can cause lifetime issues if you don’t pay attention to yourself and know how to see the differences in people. Parents should memorize this graphic and keep a close eye on children while they play outdoors. YES, even children can have heat issues. Remember that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER and that knowledge and knowing the signs of both heat issues just might save a life, especially someone close to you.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
