Heat Advisory: Stay Safe Out There!

Safety first! Temperatures are going to be very high. Take breaks and step into the shade. Do not push yourself.

Restaurants are open in the district if you need to get out of the heat.

Have a Happy Healthy 4th of July!

Tips from the National Weather Service :

Drink plenty of fluids, stay cool, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.

Take extra precautions when outside. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing. Try to limit strenuous activities to the early morning or evening. Take action when you see symptoms of heat exhaustion and/or heat stroke.

Beat the heat and check the backseat! Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency! Call 9 1 1.

The Parade Map

The RW&B Parade starts near the campus of Lincoln High School. At the staging area, the lineup of parade participants, classic cars, bands, dance groups, and community troupes are organized while children finish decorating their bikes and wagons in red, white and blue streamers. The parade winds its way through the Shasta/Hanchett and Rose Garden neighborhoods (Dana to Naglee to The Alameda). The festival is located at the corner of Shasta Ave. and The Alameda.
