Summer Sun Safety Tips: Avoid the Burn!







With Summer time upon us, there are going to be millions of people spending adequate time outdoors at the lake, beach or pool. Even though it feels good to lay out and spend time in the sun, there is the danger of sunburn. Sunburn can cause many different problems, not to mention, hurt terribly. Let's take a look at some tips we can follow to keep ourselves from suffering from pain and possible other health risks.


  • 10 a.m.-2 p.m are times when it is the hottest, try to avoid being outdoors for long periods of time during those hours.
  • Be sure to use sunscreen and reapply it every 2 hours.
  • If you wear sunglasses, please be sure to purchase those that offer total UV protection.
  • Keep Children ages 6 months or younger out of the heat and sun.
  • Find shade and relax for periods of time.
  • Remember, even if it is a cloudy day, sunburn can still occur. Always use sunscreen!
I hope everyone has an amazing Summer and enjoys their time swimming and other outdoor activities.  Please practice these safety tips and have a great Summer season! And most importantly, when you are swimming with children, rather it be at a pool, lake or beach, always have adult supervision. It's always better to be safe than sorry!

Until Next Time...♥
