Tie it down before it takes off.

Strong winds can send trampolines, and outdoor furniture flying into power lines which causes outages.

Take a moment to secure what’s around your home. It helps keep everyone connected when the weather turns.

Safety first, always. Because we all play a part in keeping the lights on.

Watch and share to your neighbours.
