Sounds like something is going on there - people being transported left and right, also heard something about buses and chaperones, maybe a school function - if so, why was it not cancelled... either way, people are being transported like no-ones business...

Yeah, I live off rt. 488 and have heard sirens going up and down for the last 2 hours. I've been trying to listen to the scanner, but I can't tell what's up.

Apparently there was a game today @ 1035 - sounds like ages of elementary school kids. Buses are headed back but a couple had to stop as kids are having heat exhaustion.

I would hate to be the one that made the decision to send the kids out in this heat...

I might just leave work and head to the FH to see if anything needs to get out.

on the other board it said that they are transporting them to calvert, southern maryland, civista, and afb. Sounds pretty bad. My son was supposed to go there today also but I told him he could skip it because the weather has been so damn :hot:

With that many transports they have to split the load.

I can see the lawsuits now...

Barring fatality or permanent injury, I hope this is taken as a learning experience for the Blue Crabs & respective school systems, not an opportunity for ambulance chasers.

One would hope on a day like this that the blue crabs would've had cooling stations, misting fans, and free water set up for the kids. (I'm not saying they didn't..I'm saying I hope they did)

Agreed. I mean it does get this hot over the summer during the normal baseball season and those items (other than free water) are used. My daughter's class is supposed to go Monday - no game, they just use the stadium - and the $15 was already paid but if its like today she will just stay home.

LaPlata had their Senior class picnic there last Friday. I would hope with the forecasts and warnings plastered all over TV and radio since last week, the school would have made the decision to cancel, rather than risk it. It sounds like they didn't. Even with cooling stations, kids run around a lot and it wouldn't take long to get overheated on a day like today. I hope everyone's okay!

We went yesterday, 320 kids and chaperones. The team had free water and we were told to bring water. One player from yesterday had to pull himself due to heat related illness. I was making my kids drink a bottle of water every 1.5 to 2 innings and I did not allow them to run around. The playground and water play areas were off limits for both days. I think they were expecting around 1500 to 2000 in attendance today.

Heatstroke, or heat related illness? There are varying degrees of heat injuries with heat stroke being the worse.

Plenty of water and restricting movement will keep you alive and well in this heat.
