  • Heatwave Alert! Stay cool this weekend, Lakeland! The National Weather Service is calling for extreme heat this weekend, with temperatures reaching into the upper 90s. Here are some tips to stay cool and safe: Hydrate! Drink plenty of water, even if you don't feel thirsty. Avoid sugary drinks and alcohol. Beat the heat: Limit strenuous activity outdoors, especially midday. Take breaks in air-conditioned spaces. Dress for the weather: Wear loose, lightweight, and light-colored clothing. Protect yourself from the sun with a hat and sunglasses. Never leave children or pets unattended in a parked car. Let's all look out for each other this weekend. Stay safe and cool, Lakeland! #Lakeland #Heatwave #StayCool #BeatTheHeat

  • Today, we celebrate the unwavering love and strength of mothers. But Mother's Day isn't just about sunshine and roses. We know many moms are facing challenges, heartache, or loss. To those moms, we see you. Your compassion and resilience in the face of hardship are an inspiration. You are the safe harbor in the storm, the unwavering hand to hold through the tears. You teach us what it means to keep going, even when the world feels heavy. Today, and every day, we honor the power of mothers. You are the backbone of our families and communities. Thank you for carrying us through thick and thin, for celebrating our victories, and for picking us up when we fall. Sending love and strength to all the moms this Mother's Day. ❤️
