REPEAT FOR LAST WEEK: SAFETY TIP OF THE WEEK - IDENTIFICATION TAGS

ACCIDENTS DO HAPPEN. Each year, over 450, 000 of us are taken to hospitals unconscious and without Identification. If you experience unexpected injury or sudden illness, when not at home, don't you want those who come to your aid to have quick easy access to your IDENTITY.

Road ID is one of the best resources for IDs that can be put on your wrist, ankle, or shoe. The website is www.roadid.com. Their IDs are very reasonably priced-around $20 & shipping is very cheap. I'm going to email the owners & see if I can get some coupons to make it even cheaper.

Diva Emily B. has emailed the owners of Road ID & they have agreed to send her discount coupons for any Divas that want to order Road IDs. In addition, if the Divas submit everyone's order together, they will waive the shipping fee & ship everyone's ID together. As soon as she gets the flyers, she will bring them to the training. Any divas that are interested are welcome to speak to her or they can email her.

DIVA THEME SONG - A number of Red Power Diva have recommend themes songs. The following is a list of the titles:
