Heat Safety Tips ☀️🌡️

As temperatures rise, taking precautions can prevent heat-related illnesses and save lives.

* Stay hydrated — Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Avoid excessive caffeine and alcohol.
* Limit outdoor activity during the hottest parts of the day, typically between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
* Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing and a wide-brimmed hat when outdoors.
* Take frequent breaks in air-conditioned or shaded areas if working outside.
* Never leave children, elderly adults, or pets in a vehicle, even for a few minutes. Temperatures inside a car can become deadly very quickly.
* Check on neighbors, family members, and those with medical conditions who may be more vulnerable to extreme heat.
* Know the signs of heat-related illness:
* Heat Exhaustion: Heavy sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, headache.
* Heat Stroke: Hot skin, confusion, altered mental status, loss of consciousness. Heat stroke is a medical emergency—call 911 immediately.

Remember: Hydrate early, seek shade often, and know your limits. A few simple precautions can make all the difference during hot weather.

Your safety is our priority—stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay safe. 🚒💧☀️

🚒 Pool Safety Starts With Prevention 🚒
As summer temperatures rise, so does the risk of water-related emergencies. Your fire department encourages everyone to make pool safety a priority.
💦 Never leave children unattended near water.�💦 Designate a responsible adult as a Water Watcher.�💦 Keep phones, flotation devices, and rescue equipment nearby.�💦 Ensure gates, fences, and pool barriers are secure.�💦 Learn CPR—it could save a life before first responders arrive.

Update (5/28): Although drought conditions have improved, we are now facing unforeseen mechanical issues with the splash pad. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to get the splash pad fixed. We'll update this post once it is back up and running.

Splash Pad Update: The Town Square Splash Pad will remain closed until drought conditions improve throughout our area.

We appreciate your patience during this time and encourage you to check out the Black Mountain Pool if you're looking for a way to cool off!
