Any appliance that burns fuel indoors is a potential source for carbon monoxide. This includes portable generators, gas stoves, grills and fireplaces. Use generators and grills outside only and away from open doors and windows, and make sure you have working CO detectors in your home. http://bit.ly/SafeKidsWI_COsafety

Schools out! And as the weather warms, more people will spend their recreation time outdoors. With increased use of public lands, the potential for accidental wildfire ignitions also increases. Before you head to your campsite, check with the DNR for the wildfire risk in the area. https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/forestfire/restrictions.asp

Did you know that the blood supply drops to extremely low levels in the summer? The reason it is so low is because we all are finally out and about traveling and enjoying the outdoors and not thinking as much about donating blood AND we are all out and about doing more adventurous things that unfortunately can send us to the hospital. Yikes! Blood collection in the summer is always tough and even more so this year with many places of business still not running blood drives as they would normally.

It is critical for our local hospitals that we still donate in the summer. The local community has become a key supplier for our hospitals As a thank you for donating in July, Versiti will provide a link to a FREE Summerfest Ticket for all donation attempts.

For those of you traveling to northern and central Wisconsin this weekend...

Scattered thunderstorms are expected on Monday afternoon and evening, especially across the central and northern portions of Wisconsin. A few strong storms will be possible as well, with the greatest risk across the northern half of the state. If you're spending the holiday weekend Up North at the cabin or spending the weekend at a campground, be sure to keep an eye to the sky, and have ways to monitor radar and receive weather watches and warnings. Think ahead about where you can safety shelter from lightning and severe weather!

Memorial Day weekend is perfect for enjoying the outdoors and grilling. It’s one of the most popular ways to cook food. But a grill placed too close to anything that can burn is a fire hazard. Be safe while enjoying the holiday!

Our deepest condolences to Officer Zeise’s family and our brothers and sisters from the Brown Deer Police Department. We were honored to work along side her. Please keep all who knew her in your thoughts during this difficult time.

The Brown Deer Police Department regrets to inform you of the passing of Retired Police Officer Jill Zeise. Zeise served as an officer with Brown Deer from January 5th, 2003 to March 31st, 2020. During her 18 years with the department, she served as a Field Training Officer, Acting Shift Leader, School Resource Officer, Investigator, and Community Outreach Officer.

In 2015, Officer Zeise was diagnosed with breast cancer. On Sunday, May 9th, after battling the disease for years, Officer Zeise lost her courageous fight against breast cancer and passed peacefully surrounded by her family. Officer Zeise was a champion in the fight against breast cancer and publicly shared her personal battles and experience through social media and local media outlets.

The Brown Deer Police Department is mourning the loss of a friend, a colleague, and an inspiration to us all. Please keep Officer Zeise’s friends and family in your thoughts as they struggle through this difficult time.

Nothing quite creates a cozy ambiance as well as a log in the fireplace and family gathered around to bask in its warmth and glow. Of course, playing with or near fire is dangerous for children, so please remember these tips before you light your hearth.

* Be certain the damper or flue is open before starting a fire.

* Minimize your child's chance of burns from the hot glass front of some fireplaces, including gas fireplaces. Safety screens can be installed to reduce the risk of burns.

* Make sure the area around the fireplace is clear of anything that is potentially flammable (ie: furniture, drapes, newspapers, books, etc.). If these items get too close to the fireplace, they could catch fire.

* Never leave a fire in the fireplace unattended. Make sure it is completely out before going to bed or leaving the house.

* Keep a fire extinguisher on hand.
