Hosting a party? Game day snacks are a must, but so is food safety!

🏈 Keep hot foods hot and keep cold foods cold!
🏈 Never leave food out at room temperature for more than 2 hours!
🏈 If a food tray is getting low, don't add fresh food to it! This can make it difficult to determine how long food has been at room temperature for.
🏈 Clean your hands, utensils, and surfaces to avoid cross contamination.
🏈 Be mindful of the allergies and dietary restrictions of your guests!

Snow covered and icy walkways can cause serious injury, and in some cases, death to yourself and others. Do your part in preventing slips and falls by making sure your walkways stay clear.

While clearing snow, remember safe snowplowing and shoveling practices. Never push yourself beyond your physical limits and know when to call on the help of a family member, neighbor, or professional snow removal service.
