Weather Safety
With the Spring weather in Chicago, we know that we can go from sunshine to thunderstorms very quickly!
Please know that we conduct safety drills each Spring and are equipped with a weather alert system so that we know when we need to head indoors!
Please feel free to reach out with any questions about how we prepare for severe weather at Timber Ridge.
