SAFETY TIPS FROM POLICE & FIRE SERVICES
It Takes Four Seconds or Less for someone to break into your vehicle: Be sure to lock your car and take all personal items with you. Never leave your keys in your vehicle.
 
Plan Ahead: Talk to your family members about a potential meet up spot around the event in case you get separated. 

See tracks, think train. Walking or driving to the event - act responsibly around railroad tracks. When the gates are down you must stop and wait until they're fully upright before crossing.
