Sun Safety Week

IMG_1864

“Here comes the sun…. and, I say It’s all right.” The lyrics from the Beatles hit song from 1969 remind us of good days ahead. Summer is a time for fun in the sun. It’s not the time to throw caution to the wind and take chances with sun safety. June 1-8 is Sun Safety Week. Did you know: You can get sunburned even on a cloudy day; on average, children get 3 times as much exposure as adults; concrete, sand, and water reflect 80% to 90% of the sun’s UV rays. Find more facts and information at sunsafetyalliance.org. Look cool and be cool in the sun: slather on sunscreen; put on a floppy hat; wear sunglasses. Have fun this summer and be safe!

 And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years…Genesis 1:14
