Peoria City Council

Mayor Bob Barrett

www.peoriaaz.gov “At least it’s a dry heat…”

It can be counted on each year – the hot summer months in Arizona are almost upon us. Come out for open swim at one of our three pools – Peoria, Centennial or Sunrise. Put your kids in swimming lessons or let them join one of the swim or dive teams. If they need something to do while school is out, our Summer Camp, Summer Recreation or Tiny Tot programs are available for the younger ages. Got teens? The Step Out drop-in program gives your 6-9 graders the option of joining in with others their age on field trips and other activities.

Keeping it Real

Councilmember Bill Patena Ironwood District Bill.Patena@peoriaaz.gov

According to the CDC National Vital Statistics System, from 1999 to 2010, an average of 618 deaths a year was associated with exposure to excessive heat. Stay safe in the hot summer – don’t become a statistic. Center for Disease Control tips for preventing heat-related illness include: • Drink more nonalcoholic fluids, regardless of your activity. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink.

• NEVER leave anyone (or any animal) in a closed, parked vehicle.

• Regularly check on infants and young children, people aged 65 or older, those who are physically ill or have a mental illness as they may be at a greater risk for heatrelated illness.

• Whenever possible, limit your outdoor activity to morning and evening hours.

• Wear sunscreen, wide-brimmed hats, lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.

• Try to rest often in shady areas.
