Issue: SummerJuly 2010
Greetings!
 
 
Bob MyersHome Watch Group of SWFL would like to welcome you to our Summer 2010  newsletter. We thank you all for your positive comments on our past newsletters.
 
It is already the middle of July which is when the probability of having   a hurricane start to increase in Florida. We at Home Watch Group would like to share with you a few suggestions to prepare you and your home for hurricane season. The forecasters are predicting more potential for storms this year than last. We certainly hope this is not the case, but since there are some procrastinators out there, the key is to prepare now.  
 
Have a great summer and have peace of mind while you are away.    
 
Bob Myers
