ICE Your PHONE: When victims are unable to communicate, emergency responders often check their cell phone directory, hoping to find the number for a family member or other important point of contact. This is where quot;
In Case of Emergencyquot;
or quot;
ICEquot;
comes in. You can create a contact under the title ICE in your telephone, followed by the person's name and telephone number. If need be, you can create multiple ICE contacts, such as ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3, to add additional phone numbers. By creating your own ICE cell phone contact list, you can help emergency responders help you during an emergency. Information on the ICE program is available in an MS-PowerPoint presentation on the American Society of Safety Engineers website. http://www.military.com/military-report/ice-your-phone?ESRC=mr.nl COMMUNITY EVENTS ,[object Object], LT DAN BAND CONCERT- FREE USO show on July 4 at the Freedom Fest. 107632554610 KIDS ,[object Object]
