In the midst of the new craze, Pokemon Go, we feel it necessary to present a few precautions to keep people safe, in particular our youth, while playing the game.

• It is important for safety due to online predators, that parents keep track of where their kids are going to hunt pokemon/characters. Know their location and next destination!

• Please pay attention to your surroundings while playing the game. Be aware of where you are walking and who is around you.

• It would be best to have a friend with you while tracking Pokemon. There is strength in numbers and with today's internet dangers and online predators, we would like to promote tracking in groups or with a friend.

• Please be mindful of businesses and respectful of business owners while playing the game. Please do not block entrances and/or please do not block emergency vehicles. Again, this goes back to paying attention to your surroundings.

• Not that we ever thought we would have to say this in our lifetime, but please DON'T POKEMON GO AND DRIVE! that includes your bike, skateboard, or other device while interacting with the app - "you can't do both safely"

• Be cautious of being lured into a bad situation.

• Do not trespass onto private property or go to areas you usually would not if you weren't playing Pokémon Go.

• We want you to have fun but be safe!! Happy hunting!!
