Green Up Day Safety Advisory
|
v Be Tick Smart: Repel, Inspect, Remove
|

waste. When clustered together items like ammonia tanks, common cold pills,
Muriatic acid, Freon or starter fluid, "Heet" brand gasoline

Call police if you see
possible meth labs, a found, closed safe, anything that looks like the police
should know about it.
|
v Stay away from homeless camps!
|
v
Don't try to pick up
small pieces of broken glass or unusually awkward trash - It's important to
take care of yourself and your group!
|
v Wear bright-colored clothing so that you are easily visible to passing motorists.
