Theft can happen at any time….even while at the park. Don’t be a victim!

When faced with any theft situation, your goal is to avoid being injured! There is nothing in your purse or wallet that is worth serious injury or death.

• Is it absolutely necessary to carry a purse at all times?  A wallet or credit card in a pocket would be less tempting. 
  
  
• Carry only the amount of cash or credit cards that you need. 
  
  
• Eliminate spare keys from purse. 
  
  
• Carry purse or shoulder bag in front of you and close to your body.
  
  
• Avoid having your purse shoulder straps around your neck or looped around your wrist. 
  
  
• Zip or close purse securely to avoid purses pickpockets.

If you park your vehicle in a parking lot at a park (or otherwise), do not leave your purse or anything else of value visible or “out in the open.”
