Weekly Updated – May 26, 2015

Hey Team!

Hope everyone was safe over the Holiday Weekend and took time remember and honor those who gave their lives for our freedom.  We’re back in full swing here at the office now as we cruise into Summer Weather!  Keep an eye out for pop-up showers and thunderstorms while you’re out and about, traveling and showing!

Severe Weather Safety Tips for Rector Hayden Agents

It’s that time of year in Kentucky when we need to be prepared for sever weather and pop-up showers.  Don’t wait until the severe weather is here to prepare!  We’ve come up with a quick list of safety tips for Rector Hayden – check it out!

  • HAVE A CELL PHONE CHARGER WITH YOU ALWAYS!  There are many great tips for preparing for severe weather emergencies, but thanks to newer technology all of your needs can be met with a charged phone.  Keep a car charger in your vehicle and/or a backup wall charger.  You can use your smartphone to:
    • See local weather reports, radar, watches, and warnings – listen to radio/news reports or alerts
    • Map your location to see if you are in the area of the county under the warning
    • Give you directions to safe spaces
    • Alert others of your location or call for Emergency Services
  • PREP YOUR VEHICLE WITH AN EMERGENCY KIT – It’s always a good idea, year round, to have an emergency kit in your vehicle.  Whether you’re showing property or heading to the office, staying smart and being prepared will always be worth the investment.
    • Flashlight
    • Extra Blanket or Towels
    • Moist-towelettes, hand wipes, sanitizer
    • Pliers, Wrench, Hammer – these basic tools can do many things!
  • BE WEATHER AWARE – Keep in mind these basic tips for when severe weather strikes!
    • THUNDERSTORMS/DOWNPOUR
      • If you are driving, and rain obstructs your ability to see – pull over safely as far to the shoulder as possible and put your hazard lights on.  Wait for the heavy rain to pass, cover your self if hail or debris is present.
      • If you can hear thunder, you are at risk for a lightening strike.  Lightening can travel far from a thunderstorm and strike even with blue sky overhead.  Avoid outdoor inspections, showings, if there is thunder in the area.
    • TORNADO/HIGH WINDS
      • Seek shelter in a sturdy building on the lowest level.  Cover your head to protect yourself from debris.
      • If you are driving, try to get to a nearby structure.  Do not take shelter under an overpass – the force of wind increases here and can be very unsafe.
      • Remember, Tornadoes can form and be on the ground even if you cannot see them.
    • FLASH FLOODING
      • It all takes 2 feet of water to float away most cars – Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

John Sanders invites agents and staff to take part in the American Diabetes Association’s event  Step-out Walk on May 30th at Keeneland 1.5 mile route, pets are welcome.
  • John Sanders, REALTOR jls@rhr.com
    • A message from John: I  originally got involved in 2005 because of my Father-in-Law. He was a double amputee and did dialysis for several years before he passed as a result of Type 2 Diabetes. He played college football on the 1951 national championship team at Tennessee. It was hard to watch him decline as he did, but he kept a strong spirit through it all. This has always been my motivation in fighting for this cause, and I hope to put together a team here at Rector Hayden. If anyone is interested in joining the fight I would greatly appreciate the support. There are many families that are affected by Diabetes, but it is a battle that can be won. I know many of the people here are at work for different causes, and are great servants for those causes. Please let me know if you would be willing to join up and I will forward more information as it becomes available
