Dole Great Race of Agoura Hills

There is no better way to enjoy a spring day than participating in a local event with your loved ones. The 30th Annual Dole Great Race of Agoura Hills is taking place on Saturday, March 28th and is an exciting event that the whole family can enjoy together.

The Great Race features six different races that all end at the same location so that participants can get together and celebrate the finish. The race is one of the largest running events in the Los Angeles area, and the proceeds from the event help to benefit many of the schools in the area, including Oak Park and Agoura Hills.

Each participant gets to enjoy much more than a run. With quality swag and a stuffed reusable goodie bag, each runner gets to leave with their hands full of free goodies. There is also plenty of refreshing drinks and delicious snacks to enjoy after finishing the course. The lively crowd cheers on all the runners, helping everyone finish strong and feel like they are a part of the community.

The months of planning and organization also help the race be voted the Best Running Event in L.A. This ensures that there is never any confusion during the race, making it an enjoyable experience from start to finish.

All the races will end at Chumash Park in Agoura Hills with a Sports and Fitness Expo and Post-Race Party. People of all ages are welcome to participate, so make sure to sign up the whole family for this exciting community event!

Stay Safe This Thanksgiving With These Tips

Thanksgiving is just a couple of days away, so it is the perfect time to make your shopping list to be sure you have all the ingredients for your Thanksgiving feast. It is also the best time to ensure that you stay safe while in the kitchen. Keep these simple Thanksgiving safety tips in mind so that everyone has a safe and happy holiday.

  • Before you start cooking, thoroughly clean your oven and stove. Built up grease from past meals can easily start a fire.
  • Do not leave you house while you are cooking. If something is on the stove, do not leave the kitchen so that you can keep an eye on the food.
  • Do not allow children within three feet of the oven and stove since they can easily be burned from boiling water or splattering grease.
  • Keep you floor free from any obstacles, such as toys and bags. Keep your pets out of the kitchen so that you do not trip over them.
  • Keep any flammable objects, such as towels, potholders, plastic bags, and food containers away from the stove so that they do not catch fire.
  • Keep a fire extinguisher that is rated for grease fires in your kitchen. Make sure that multiple people in your house know how to use it.
  • Check all of the smoke alarms in your home to make sure that they are working properly. Replace any alarms that are outdated or broken.
  • Before you go to bed at the end of the day, double check to make sure that all appliances are turned off, especially the oven and stove.
