Hello, summer! ‘Tis the easy living season of sunshine, sandals, and outdoor adventures. And, as your calendar fills up with fun, you don’t want to be limited by worries about your physical safety.
So…summer enjoyment step one: Add a medical alert device to your list of must-have summer items (it tucks in nicely between “croquet set” and “sunscreen”). Summer enjoyment step two: Map out an itinerary of favorite warm weather pastimes – and include some new activities. Because a little challenge and excitement make summer all the more sweet. Here are three ideas to try.
Take up a social sport
Hang out with friends…and get some exercise in. Pickleball, a blend of table tennis, tennis, and badminton, is simple to learn, popular with all ages, and can be played as a doubles or singles game. Or let’s count the benefits of golf. You’re outside. You can play nine holes or gear up for the full 18. Walk the course or cruise in a golf cart. Treat yourself to an alfresco lunch afterwards!
You can easily bring along a wearable personal device as a safety sidekick to ease your mind on the court or course. Not only can these devices get you the help you need in the event of an injury, some also offer features that help you track your physical activity and check the weather forecast.
Plan a water fun weekend with your grandkids
Start with a sky full of sunshine. Invite the special kids in your life to join you at the beach, lake, or pool. Don’t forget the extras – a kayak, inflatable rafts, or floats. Swim, play, rinse, repeat. Voila! The recipe for a perfect play day.
Stay safe by troubleshooting potential medical emergencies in advance. A water-resistant personal safety device and connect you to emergency services at the press of a button.
Explore someplace new
Make memories that’ll last long after summer by heading out on a travel adventure. Grab your girlfriends for a weekend away. Choose a city none of you have been to before and rent a place with a pool or hot tub. Or rally the kids and grandkids to check a national park off your bucket list (Buy a National Parks Senior Pass and visit several park sites for substantial savings)!
Wherever you go, you can get a safety device that protects you with extensive GPS coverage that works with the data services provider in your destination.
Always stay connected
