🚨 Weekly Point of Safety: Tick Bite Prevention 🚨

As temperatures rise and outdoor activities increase, so does the risk of tick exposure. Recent reports indicate that weekly emergency room visits related to tick bites are higher than usual, making this an important reminder for all of us.

The best protection during tick season is prevention. If you discover an attached tick, remove it as soon as possible—don't wait to seek medical care. Removing a tick within 24 hours can significantly reduce the risk of contracting tick-borne illnesses.

Here are a few simple ways to help protect yourself:

✅ Use EPA-registered insect repellent
✅ Wear permethrin-treated clothing when appropriate
✅ Perform thorough tick checks after spending time outdoors
✅ Remove attached ticks promptly and safely

One of the easiest and safest tools for tick removal is a tick key, which can be purchased online for less than $10.

Stay aware, stay protected, and help keep yourself and those around you safe this season.

Weekly Point of Safety:

Now that Memorial Day has passed, traffic on local lakes and waterways will continue to increase. Before heading out on the water, always check weather conditions and forecasts to help ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.

Remember that operating a boat under the influence of alcohol is not only dangerous — it is illegal. Stay alert, make responsible decisions, and always operate your boat at safe speeds for current water and traffic conditions.

Before leaving the dock, double-check that you have the proper number and correct sizes of life jackets for everyone on board. Taking a few extra minutes to prepare can help keep everyone safe while enjoying time on the water.

As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day — whether it’s grilling out, spending time on the water, or simply enjoying a well-earned day off — SinglePoint encourages everyone to take a moment to pause and remember the true meaning of the holiday. 🇺🇸

Memorial Day is a time to honor the courageous men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their bravery and selflessness have protected the freedoms we enjoy every day.

We are grateful to those who gave everything, and we remember the families who carry their legacy forward.

Wishing everyone a safe, meaningful, and reflective Memorial Day.

Office Closure Reminder:

Please note that our offices will be closed on Monday, May 25, 2026, in observance of Memorial Day.

As we enjoy the long weekend, we also take time to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

We wish everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend.

What a great way to kick off the week yesterday by supporting the Pipeliner’s Club of Atlanta at their annual golf tournament at Berkeley Hills Country Club! ⛳

From the beautiful weather to the golfers, event organizers, and fellow vendors, everything came together perfectly — as always. Events like these are a great reminder of how valuable it is to step away from the office, spend time building relationships, and connect with others across the industry. It was wonderful seeing so many familiar faces while also making new connections along the way.

A big thank you to the SinglePoint golf team — Vi Bean, Gary Clayton, Steve Clark, and Reeves Stribling — for representing us on the course and making it a great day!

And an extra shoutout to our two amazing ladies who kept everyone refreshed while sharing snacks, drinks, and marketing materials at our live hole sponsor. We’re already looking forward to next year!

We ended last week on the course and are starting this work week on the golf course. ⛳️

We’re looking forward to a great day out at the Pipeliner’s Club of Atlanta golf tournament! Be sure to look for our tent out at the hole we’re sponsoring.

We’re excited to spend the day connecting with familiar faces, meeting potential future clients, and watching our SinglePoint team play in the tournament.

Here’s to a great day of golf, networking, and fun on the course!

Weekly Point of Safety:

As temperatures continue to rise across Georgia, snake activity is increasing — especially around job sites, wooded areas, tall grass, and materials left undisturbed for long periods. This week’s Point of Safety is a reminder to stay alert and aware of your surroundings while working outdoors. Most snakes are not aggressive, but they will defend themselves if startled or threatened.

Before reaching into brush, debris piles, storage areas, or under equipment, take a moment to visually inspect the area first. Wear proper PPE, including boots and gloves, and avoid stepping over logs or blindly placing your hands where visibility is limited. If a snake is spotted, do not attempt to handle or remove it yourself. Give it space and notify the appropriate personnel if necessary.

Safety starts with awareness. A few extra seconds of caution can prevent a serious injury and help ensure everyone makes it home safely at the end of the day. Stay aware, stay prepared, and stay safe this snake season.

What an incredible day at the Women’s Energy Network (WEN) Scholarship Golf Tournament! ⛳️💚

SinglePoint was proud to be a hole sponsor and have a tent on the course. The day was filled with great conversations, networking, lots of laughter, and plenty of fun with an amazing group of professionals supporting a great cause.

A huge thank you to our awesome SinglePoint team — Mary Jo, Melissa, Caroline, and Angela — for representing us so well throughout the event!

We also want to recognize and thank everyone who dedicated countless hours behind the scenes to make this annual tournament such a HUGE success. Events like this don’t happen without the hard work, planning, and passion of so many individuals and volunteers.

We’re already looking forward to next year! 🏌️‍♀️✨

And that’s a wrap! 🎉

What an incredible NC SC UCC Conference! A huge thank you to everyone who dedicated the long hours, late nights, and hard work behind the scenes to make this event such a tremendous success. We were truly grateful for the opportunity to participate as both a sponsor and vendor.

This conference went far beyond the important conversation of safe digging. The speakers did an outstanding job addressing the bigger picture — overcoming challenges, building strong company culture, and ensuring organizations provide meaningful mental health support and resources for their teams.

We were thankful for the opportunity to network with so many amazing professionals, be part of an environment centered around safety education, and enjoy some great food along the way!

Congratulations to the winner of our “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” basket! ⚾️

Already looking forward to next year!
