Safety Tip of the Month:
How many of us made the resolution to lose a few pounds? Well, I'm sure many of you have thought once or twice about hitting the gym this year. Remember these key points when making this resolution:
Thank you so much for the Safety Education seminars you presented. You packed so much helpful information into one hour. The women in attendance were so thankful they had been there and all were inspired to encourage others to attend in the future. I am delighted at the feedback we received.
After seeing your presentation twice now, I feel very strongly that this seminar should be part of every woman's educational process-educational in the sense of learning to take responsibility for our own safety. What we learned from your program is a great step toward building our awareness and empowering ourselves to respond in threatening situations and preventing attacks.
We plan to have you back soon. I feel confident that the women who came to the first seminar will carry the word to their coworkers and we'll see that even more women interested in their safety will attend. I have recommended this program to others so that many more women will have the opportunity to attend this powerful presentation.
Thank you. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Very truly yours,
J.P.

News & Updates:
Colorado Safety Educators and Five Star Seminar devoted their attention to medical providers starting in November in honor of National Hospice Month. With the success of this program we have taught several hundred women during the months of November & December of 2005. We have been asked to continue our program on Behavioral Safety & Personal Security for those in the medical field. Our thanks to those who attended, and to those who scheduled our seminar.Safety Tip of the Month:
How many of us made the resolution to lose a few pounds? Well, I'm sure many of you have thought once or twice about hitting the gym this year. Remember these key points when making this resolution:
- Gym parking lots are in the top 5 list for places women get attacked.
- You are tired when you leave the gym from a long workout.
- You might have your hair pulled into a pony tail and sporting loose clothes like sweats, or a baggy t-shirt.
We're not asking you to ditch the resolution of fitness this year. We're just asking you to be aware of your surroundings. Don't hit the gym at midnight when all of the machines aren't in use. Exercise with a friend. And although baggy clothes are cozy to workout in, consider changing back into your street clothes after working out.
We have resolved to make women safer and more aware during 2006. We hope you will do the same. Happy New Year!
