Last day of May

This spring has certainly been much different than last year.  Although we have had our fair share of rain, and even some locally heavy downpours, we haven't had the flooding and damage we had last year.  I say that with a hopeful watch on the forecast for tomorrow which will bring potentially severe thunderstorms and heavy rains to our area.  As we head into June, we look forward to summer vacation season, travel, picnics, fireworks, parades, carnivals, and all the fun getting together with friends and family.  Please be careful in all your activities and travel.  Be aware of tourists and keep in mind they may not be aware of local traffic patterns, one way streets, traffic circles, etc.  Take a little extra time and caution to be aware of your surroundings, it may save an accident or something tragic from happening.  Be aware of increased walkers, runners, cyclists, and children at play now that the nicer weather is here and schools are letting out for the summer. 

Looking for an active event in the Gettysburg area, check at the Spirit of Gettysburg race sponsored by the YWCA.  The event will be held on Saturday, June 23, 2012 and has something for everyone from a 5K race to a children's fun run.  The event is sure to be fun for the whole family.

Travelling for the summer and have rental car questions, give us a call or check out our website www.crsinsurance.com

Have a great day!

National Bike to Work Day

Happy National Bike to Work Day!  What a beautiful day for it too.  It's been a beautiful spring here in adams county so far this year, and we're hoping the great weather continues.  Please be careful today as there are sure to be additional people riding to and from work on this special day.  It's always great to see people out getting some exercise, taking in the sights, and just enjoying the outdoors on a bike.  Some friendly advice to our two wheel commuting friends:  Always wear a helmet, properly signal so others are aware of your intentions, and be aware of your surroundings.  We hope that everyone can share the road, enjoy the time outdoors, and make it home safe and sound. 

While we are on the subject of being outside, getting exercise and staying healthy, there is no better time than now to check out life insurance rates.  Rates are best when you are in good health and taking great care of yourself.  Don't wait too long to start planning for the future or to prepare for the unexpected or unfortunate.  Give us a call or send us an email for a life insurance quote today.

Have a great weekend!

Mother's Day

It's hard to believe we are a third of the way through May already.  Mother's Day weekend is upon us and spring is in full swing.  Don't forget to take care of mom this weekend, even if it is something as simple as a phone call. 

With the warmer weather comes some additional risk and responsibility.  Be aware of road construction and the workers at active work sites.  Runners and bicyclists are more likely to be out this time of year, some of which wear bright, safe color clothing and others tend to just blend in a bit.  Children are outside playing later into the day.  Be aware through residential areas of children running into the street.  The younger people aren't always aware of traffic when chasing a ball or riding a bike or playing in general.  Please be careful so everyone gets home safely and we can all enjoy a safe and happy summer.

Give us a call or check out our website www.crsinsurance.com for a quote on homeowners insurance, auto insurance, life insurance, or commercial insurance.

Have a great day!
