Heads Up on Heartland Bug!



Heads up on the Heartland virus. As the weather warms and we all spend more time outdoors, we need to be aware of ticks and the diseases they carry.  Here is an excellent story on the Heartland virus by our friends at Georgia Outdoor News:

The CDC also has a nice summary on the disease and prevention measures:

We hope this information helps you to safely enjoy the woods and water this year.  Good luck!
