This is a FREE presentation where you can learn from the American Red Cross Association on the dangers of extreme heat and how to stay safe in high temperatures. This information is highly useful for Florida residents, particularly during this time of year!
During the presentation, watermelon salad will be provided by F.I.S.H as a refreshing and hydrating snack. Additionally, F.I.S.H representatives will teach you how to infuse your water with fruit for more delicious hydration in these hot summer months!
After the presentation, the American Red Cross will also offer free hands-only, noncertifiable CPR training for anyone who would like to stay and participate.
We hope you will join us to learn practical ways to stay healthy, safe, and prepared during extreme heat.
Please RSVP below so we can plan for an accurate headcount and save your seat for this free community event.

HAPPENING TOMORROW!
Beginner Watercolor Workshop with Paulette Boudreau 🎨
Thursday, August 6th
10am - 12pm
Join us for a lesson by Paulette Boudreau in the beautiful art of watercolor painting!
Painting with Paulette is fast-moving, encouraging, and definitely fun! You'll start by getting friendly with watercolor -- making swatches, playing with brushstrokes, and mixing color. Then you dive in. Your paper comes pre-drawn with your seahorse, and the palette is curated so you can focus on process, not guesswork.
Paulette will show you how to work with the water, not against it, encouraging you to loosen up and trust the magic. This class is perfect for beginners or for anybody who needs permission to play.
All supplies are included.
