WORTHAM'SNATIONAL NIGHT OUT
Success!Once again National Night Out was a huge success due to
many involved. Our Block Captains really stepped up and worked with set up, getting ice, helping to maintain the ticket booth, music and clean up. We cannot do this without your help. MANY THANKS TO ALL!! Our Block Captains are the heart of our community, without them we would not be successful in keeping our community safe.
We had many door prizes from Planet Fitness, Marie Burch-Avon, Central Park Hair @Wortham, Chuy’s, Hargrave Barber Shop, Applebee’s, Fashion Nails, Chili’s, Blue Water Seafood, Mr. Donut and Party City.
Please visit these fine establishments to show our support.Our Sheriff’s Office including the Mounted Patrol and
Fire Dept. were present talking with residents. Sheriff Ron Hickman also visited early on during the event. This year we also had new games for the children along with balloon making and face painting.
A BIG thank you to Rachel Gerhardt for getting everything needed to make this the success that it was. Without her it would not be possible to have such an event.
Twelve Top Travel Tips When Traveling with Your Pet
Traveling with your pet can be fun and rewarding – especially when you’re prepared. In addition to the pet travel “basics” (safely restraining your pet, allowing adequate time for potty breaks, bringing comforting items from home, and so on), several additional simple practices can help make every trip easier and more pleasant for both you and your pet.
1. Schedule a veterinarian visit to insure overall health and current vaccinations. Ask for a health certificate and vaccination records, especially if you’re traveling out of state.
2. Make sure your pet’s identification tags are up-to-date and legible. Also, be sure his rabies tag and vaccinations are current.
3. Include your destination address and/or phone number on your pet’s tags and cage/crate (if applicable).
4. Remember to pack water to prevent dehydration. To help insure convenient feedings bring along a collapsible food bowl.
5. Pack all medications and supplements to avoid missed doses.6. Pack a first aid kit to insure readiness in the event of an injury
or medical emergency.7. Exercise your pet prior to departure. A tired pet is typically
much more amenable to travel. Also, bring a lead or harness to allow exercise during pit stops.
8. Feed your pet at least four hours prior to departure to prevent car sickness. If the trip is long, feed a smaller amount that normal at least two hours before you leave.
9. Use a travel remedy, if necessary. If your pet is extremely anxious about travel, try a soothing non-prescription calming product.
10. Trim toenails to prevent snags and injury, especially if your pet will travel in a cage or crate.
11. Cover your car seats to keep them clean and free of hair shed on your trip.
12. Know your travel rules and restrictions, especially if you will travel on an airplane.
