Here are some safety tips when walking, especially at night:

• Always be aware of your surroundings, and the people who are around you.
• Avoid walking alone; either walk with someone, or walk in areas where others are near.
• Stay in well lighted areas, away from alleys, bushes, and doorways.
• Avoid shortcuts through alleys, parks, vacant lots, or other deserted places.
• Walk in the middle of the sidewalk facing traffic.
• If you are walking to your car in a parking lot, and anything makes you feel uncomfortable, TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS, go back in the store. Get someone to walk with you to your car.
• If you have a cell phone, carry it with you when walking or driving and be prepared to use it to call for help. Know what number to call (911 for emergencies) and be prepared to give your exact location to the emergency operator.

Achievers program is a YMCA mentoring program for youth in grades 8-12.  Program goals are to help youth:  set career and educational goals, improve academic performance and college readiness, and strengthens developmental assets.

Over 400 students from 70 schools attend these bi-weekly Saturday sessions activities.  Students meet in groups (10 career clusters) which focus on various professions or careers.  Eighth graders meet separately to learn life skills.  Over 100 adult mentors participate as volunteer leaders and positive role models.  The program awards over $1 million in sponsored college scholarships to participants.

The Achievers Program brings youth in contact with a variety of adult role models from companies and organizations throughout Metro Louisville.  With guidance of parents and the leadership of adult achievers, youth have been motivated and assisted in setting their career and educational goals.  Youth in grades 8 through 12 have the opportunity to earn scholarships, tour industries and colleges along with participating in a variety of work-study programs.

Never leave your pet unattended in a parked car for any period of time. On a warm day, the temperature in a car can exceed 120° in a matter of minutes—even with the windows partially open. Your pet can quickly suffer brain damage or die from heatstroke or suffocation.

 If your pet is exposed to high temperatures:

• Look for signs of heat stress—heavy panting, glazed yes, a rapid pulse, unsteadiness, a staggering gait, vomiting, or a deep red or purple tongue.

• If your pet is overheated, move him to a cooler area and take these emergency steps:

1. Gradually lower his body temperature by applying cool (not cold) water all over his body or soaking him in a cool bath.

2. Place cool, wet towels over the back of the neck, in the armpits, and in the groin area. You may also wet the ear flaps and paws with cool water. Direct a fan on the wet areas to speed evaporative cooling.

3. You may offer fresh, cool water if your dog is alert and wants to drink. Do not force your pet to drink.

• Take your pet immediately to a veterinarian—it could save his life. Call ahead, if possible, to be sure your veterinarian is available.

• If you see an animal in a car exhibiting signs of heat stress, call your local animal care and control agency or police department immediately and take the following steps:

1. Get the vehicle’s tag number and enter the nearest store or business to request an emergency announcement be made about a pet left in a hot car.

2. Go back and wait for police at the vehicle. Heat stress is not the only danger your pet faces when left alone in a car. Many pets are stolen each year from unattended cars.

Many pets prefer to stay home, but if you must take your pet with you in your car, do so safely: Cats should ride in pet carriers, and dogs should ride in travel crates or wear a safety harness. When a pet travels, he should wear two ID tags—one with a home address and one with a destination address.
