Let’s Talk Summer Safety

June 7, 2025

This week’s issue is all about summer safety.

The cover story comes from Melissa Kaye. She interviews the parents of a young man who died from an allergic reaction. Now they are working to require all first responders to carry epi-pens.

We have stories on sports and summer safety, avoiding burns, what to do when the bugs bite, how to take cover in a storm, the music of Cody James. And of course our regular features of Amanda Nimmer’s commentary and Pete Schwaba’s Classic Cinema Pick of the Week.
