Safety During the Holidays

Peace, love, and safety!

It’s that time of the year where chestnuts roast on open fires and Christmas trees are lit up providing extra holiday cheer. While the holidays are a great time for lights, warmth, and other festive things, this can sometimes be hazardous.

CELEBRATE SAFELY

While we want you to all celebrate this holiday with all the pizzaz, we also want you to be safe. Here are some good guidelines to keep in mind when getting holly and jolly!

• Keep all decorations at least 3 feet away from heat sources
• always unplug your Christmas tree before you leave the house or go to bed
• If you have a real tree, make sure to water it to keep it hydrated and safe
• Inspect your fireplace and make sure it is working properly before use
• Check lights and other electrical decorations for shortages or broken wires
• Only plug in Christmas lights in dry areas
