Outdoor Grilling Safety
Labor Day is one of the busiest grilling weekends of the year — and also one of the riskiest. Consider these safety tips:
- Clean your grill thoroughly — remove grease and food buildup from both the grates and the drip pan.
- Keep grills away from your home, deck railings, and overhanging tree or bush branches.
- Never leave a lit grill unattended and keep children and pets at a safe distance.
Water & Boating Safety
Whether you're soaking up the sun or heading out on the water, keep these safety tips in mind:
- Keep electrical appliances away from pools and wet areas. If an appliance gets wet, unplug it and have it inspected before reuse.
- Check the weather and water conditions before swimming or boating.
- Wear U.S. Coast Guard–approved life jackets and ensure your boat is equipped with proper safety gear.
