Tip of the Week from the Office of Emergency Mgt.

"Stay Cool in the Pool" is this week's tip from the New York City Office of Emergency Management. The email tip sent out today announced that this Friday, June 27, the city's 54 public pools will open. It seems like an odd tip to come from this office but I guess it's a slow week. The OEM announcement continued with the following advice: It is important to stay cool as temperatures rise. Visiting one of the City's pools is a good way to keep your body temperature low on a hot summer day. Remember to re-apply sunscreen after you swim. Personally I'd rather have a cold beer but that's just me.
