Summer Celebrations & Safety: Tips for a Safe, Successful Outdoor Company Event

SANTA MONICA, Calif. - June 17, 2016 - PRLog -- Summer celebrations are right around the corner. As companies kick off their annual company picnics and employee events, safety in the summer heat is an often overlooked vital aspect of event planning. While everyone wants summer events to be fun and cool, safety should be your number one concern. Whether your celebrating 365 days of sunshine or 365 days of no accidents, one thing is for certain - you'll need to take steps to ensure you're safe from the SoCal summer sun.

Staying Safe in the SoCal Summer Sun

100+ degree days are common in SoCal summers and while the reliable sunny weather may be great for planning outdoor events, it also can make them dangerous. Hiring a professional for outdoor events is a smart way to keep your guests safe. They think of the overlooked details, like how summer events should provide plenty of shade, cold beverages, cool ways to avoid serious sunburns, dehydration, heat stroke, and overall a bad time.

Planning ahead is key to a safe and successful event. Knowing that you and your guests will be facing some serious heat this summer, be sure to plan cool ways to keep them entertained while avoiding heat stroke. Things like adding shade with umbrella tables, extra beverage stations, lots of water rides and games, even location (why not the beach?) can go a long way. Misting systems and large fans are increasingly popular at outdoor summer events and can make the difference between 'getting down' and 'man down'.

Planning with a Professional

A lot of things can go wrong at an outdoor event, but a good planner knows to watch for both the small things (like taping down power cords to avoid trip hazards) to big things (like training all the staff on first aid and safety). It is vital you have an event planner on your side who thinks of your employees (and their families) safety as much as you do. Event Solution's team even includes the slogan "Safety First" on their shirts to remind each other and their client's guests to be safe while having fun!

Your summer event is more than just another party - it is a business investment
