The Importance of Water!21 Oct
A friend gave us a scare on Sunday.
Word has it that he was found lying in the grass of a western park after a paintball friendly. They thought he was sleeping, but after constant calling, they found that they couldn’t wake him & his body was super hot. Cause? Heat stroke (well, suspected, anyway).
Thank God he’s alright now!
Which brings me to what I’m writing about today – Water, is as important as any other logistic! Especially for an outdoor sporty event.
You don’t even have to include it in the goodie bag. Just make sure water points or water stations are available for your guests / participants to grab & go. Although this cannot possibly guarantee that your event goers would be completely hydrated or safe from the effects of the sun, it does give them enough water options.
Also, sometimes reminders help! Be free with your chatter on how to keep themselves hydrated & protected from the hot hot sun.
Why? because when everyone’s having fun, drinking sometimes slip from their minds! I have to admit, even I do that sometimes!
My friend’s little incident has certainly been a good reminder for all of us to be cautious & safe (without short-changing on the fun part!).
Better safe than sorry right?
Have a great Watery Wednesday!
Smiles,
