Summer Safety Hints

Now that summer's in full swing, it's a good time to get your backyards in shape for the season's get-togethers and activities.

Inspect your play area - Your backyard swing set and other playground equipment should have plenty of shock-absorbing materials-such as wood chips or sand-underneath and on the perimeter. Replenish those materials if they look skimpy.

De-clutter - Put away toys, tools and lawn equipment.

Clean before cooking - Before firing it up, give your grill and its grates a good cleaning with soapy water. Invest in extra protection - Buy a grill pad or splatter mat to place under your grill. These naturally heat-resistant pads made of composite cement or plastic will catch grease that misses the drip pan and help prevent a flare-up.

Enjoy your summer & be safe!

Summer is Here!

I think we were afraid that summer would never come to Whatcom County. It actually did yesterday, only a day late...............

Be extra careful to look out for children playing, people riding bikes, motorcycles, walking & crossing streets.

Look over your insurance policies to make sure you have all of your summer "toys" covered. If you are not sure, call us for a policy review.
