Safety on the Trails

We do our best to stay safe when we leave work, at the parking lot in the mall, but are we forgetting about our safety when we are most vulnerable-many times without a cell phone or the familiar safety of the inside of our car or home? The recent murder of Nicole Ganguzza on the Blanchard Park jogging trail should remind us all to increase our vigilance.

PLAN NOW FOR HURRICANE SEASON
On August 13th, 2004, Hurricane Charley came barreling through Orlando with winds up to 145 mph. The strength of this storm caused 20 deaths and left thousands either homeless or without power. A month later, Hurricane Frances moved slowly through our area, and then on September 25th, Hurricane Jeanne finished off the season causing even more damage to homes left unprotected by the previous storms.
Public Safety in the UCF Community
When you live and work in such close proximity to the sixth largest university in the country, it’s important to understand both the wonderful things it brings to our community, but also the public safety concerns that typically tag along.
