101 Days of Summer Safety: Five Simple Ways to Stay Safe

Summer is here! Our 101 Days of Summer Safety is the perfect time to refresh your warm-weather safety habits. Here are five simple ways to stay safe, healthy and ready for summer fun:

  • Don’t Wait—Hydrate!
    Start your day with non-caffeinated fluids—water is best—and keep sipping throughout the day to prevent dehydration.
  • Ease Into the Heat.
    Let your body adjust to rising temps, especially during the season’s first heat waves. Gradual acclimation reduces the risk of heat-related illness.
  • Sunscreen Is Your Summer Sidekick.
    Apply—and reapply—broad-spectrum sunscreen when outdoors, even on cloudy days.
  • Keep an Eye on the Kids.
    Stay alert around water, streets, and playgrounds. Supervision is key to preventing accidents.
  • Stick to the Summer Safety Basics: Water. Rest. Shade.
    These three simple steps can make a big difference in avoiding heat exhaustion and staying well.

Let’s make safety a priority and enjoy a safe, healthy summer—one day at a time!
