Summer is fun, but you should never swim alone.

Always pay attention to your surroundings—even when walking on a sidewalk.

Make sure you know how to dial 911 in case of an emergency.

Always tell an adult you know if someone is bothering you.

Remember it is the law to wear a helmet while riding your bike.
