FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | NOVEMBER 2019 25 Fall is here. The air is cooler. The days are shorter and the nights are longer. Remember - Daylight Savings time starts on Nov. 3, so don't forget to set your clocks back one hour. Many of our residents walk as a main source of exercise along with their furry friends. With the weather changing, it is a great time to get out and walk. If you are an early riser and a nice morning walk is something you enjoy, the Safety Committee wants to remind you that the mornings can be very cold. Check your weather app before leaving. If the temperatures are 35 degrees or below, be careful as our sidewalks and streets may have a thin layer of ice. Waiting until the sun is up and the temperature is a little warmer will make your walk safer. If you are still working and leave early in the morning you may notice that many residents are out walking and enjoying our great community. Please slow down and watch for pedestrians. This is for your safety as well as the safety of our residents who are out walking and enjoying our community. If you love to walk in the evening, it is getting dark early. Please wear light-colored clothing and possibly even have a reflective jacket/vest and shoes. Reflective tape works also. This will help drivers see you as you are walking and crossing the streets. Always carry a flashlight, this will light your path, help alert drivers that you are walking. Many thanks to avid walkers Donna and Bruce Lewis for their input. Drivers, please remember that our speed limit is 30 mph. Remind your guests as well as workers and vendors that the speed limit is 30 mph. Please stop at all stop signs and yield to traffic in the circle when approaching and entering the roundabouts. Reminder: When entering roundabouts, it is a right turn only, turning left into a roundabout is very dangerous. Be safe. The Safety Committee meets on the second Tuesday of the month at 10 am in the RCN Conference Room. All residents are welcome to attend. ~ Anita Worthen Safety Committee
