Your annual reminder that visibility is crucial!

This is a great safety guide for children swimming in lakes and swimming pools. The color of the bathing suit can make it easier or more difficult to see children while they are swimming. This is a good reminder to always have adult supervision when children are swimming. (Thanks to Praire Lakes Healthcare System.)

Emergency services has had to come to the local pickleball courts a few times in the past couple of weeks due to heat related issues (dehydration, heat exhaustion, etc). As we're hitting our hottest days so far this summer, be sure to listen to your body and its limits!

- Make sure you're hydrating before you get to the courts, and while you're there. Especially if you're playing long games, pause to hydrate as needed between the points.

- Take a look at the image I attached. Though the ambulance has come just a few times, I've heard a number of people reporting symptoms of heat exhaustion out there. Ignoring symptoms of heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke, which is a life threatening emergency.

- Take advantage of shaded areas and consider taking a few minutes to cool off between games.

- Be mindful of fatigue, the level of exertion this time of year is totally different compared to the winter. Fatigue and sloppy form go hand in hand. If you start moving with poor technique, take heed of what your body is telling you. Overexertion can lead to other injuries such as calf strains and falls.
