MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
For millions of people, the holiday season is a time to reflect on family traditions that have shaped our holiday memories and experiences since childhood.
In keeping with the theme of tradition, this season I invite families everywhere to introduce a new tradition - a tradition of safety - that will help protect your home from holiday electrical hazards and reinforce safe practices year after year.
Resources created for this campaign are now available at www.holidaysafety.org, ESFI's holiday campaign Web site. I hope you find these holiday safety resources helpful, and encourage you to use them to share the important message of holiday electrical safety awareness with customers, employees, friends and family members this year.

ESFI LAUNCHES 2009 HOLIDAY SAFETY AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
The holiday season is an exciting time of year, but an increase in indoor activities during the holidays combined with the craziness of shopping, entertaining and cooking for family and friends causes many to forget basic home safety.
This season, ESFI and The Home Depot invite families everywhere to Make Safety a Tradition. As part of our holiday safety awareness program, ESFI has launched a seasonal Web site featuring basic tips, facts, statistics, trends, and safety reminders to help keep families and communities safe this season.
