08 PRIORITIZE EVENT SAFETY Your community's event calendar is likely full during the holidays, and that doesn't even include all the get-togethers residents have on their own. Whether events are held at your community's clubhouse or in homes, prioritizing safety is key to a successful event. While planning a gathering, consider: • Capacity Limits: Follow capacity guidelines for indoor spaces to prevent overcrowding. Communicate these limits in advance to residents. • Parking and Traffic Control: Inform residents and guests of designated parking areas to avoid blocking emergency access routes. • Noise Control and Timing: Set a time limit for events to reduce noise disturbances. Encourage guests to be mindful of neighbors, especially in shared spaces. • Food Safety: When planning potlucks or gatherings with shared food, remind everyone about safe food preparation and handling practices. • Security Measures: For larger events, consider hiring additional security personnel or monitoring common areas to handle any disruptions and maintain order. • Encourage Responsible Alcohol Consumption: If alcohol is served, remind attendees to drink responsibly and encourage designated drivers or carpooling. 6 5 4 3 7 8 9 10 2
