Thank you to Jamie Ramage, Chair, OPSEU Ambulance Division, for this timely message:

AS THE SEASONS CHANGE SO DO THE DAYLIGHT HOURS

Increase your visibility in the darkness. On average 20 people per day visit an emergency department for a transport related pedestrian injury.

Be seen not injured:

* carry a working flashlight
* wear light coloured reflective clothing
* walk facing oncoming traffic in a single file

If you encounter anyone who appears to be injured, do not move the person, immediately call 911.

    • Hi Ann, nice to hear from you! I posted about the Rotary Haunted Hill Run in Sept, see my blog post entitled “Boo!” at http://pattifoleyward5.com/2012/09/17/boo
      Unfortunately I missed the Run this year as I had a conflicting event. Do you have an update for us about $$ raised? I did the Run last year and it was a great event and raised funds for local youth programs.
