Yard Safety Wristbands

RRtGCM Yard Safety Wristbands

Richard Mudrinich, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm), has created the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Wristbands (tm) to promote yard safety awareness. "I created a nice-looking colorful silicone wristband design to draw attention to yard safety awareness," shares Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm).

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) is a caped crusader and yard safety super hero working tirelessly to prevent lawn mower accidents and to promote yard safety. "Please wear the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Wristbands (tm). I want to rescue people and animals from getting hurt due to a yard accident. I want to find a cure for yard accidents through research and to create awareness through education and entertainment. I seek to collaborate with various organizations to promote yard safety awareness," shares Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm).

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) is a renaissance yardman, utilizing various art forms to communicate his safety message, including the design of Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Wristbands (tm). "I want to educate and entertain the general public regarding the importance of yard safety. Lawn mower accidents happen in a split-second, often resulting in life-altering outcomes that sometimes include amputation. I learned this from first-hand experience when I amputated part of my left foot while cutting the grass," shares Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm). "Please wear the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Wristbands (tm) to pass along the yard safety message so that people and animals do not get hurt. Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) is here today so that yard accidents go away."

Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) wants to create awareness regarding the frequency and severity of lawn mower accidents and to promote preventive measures to rescue individuals and families from the dreaded experience associated with yard accidents. Each year, there are about 100,000 lawn mower accidents. Furthermore, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that hospital emergency rooms treat more than 400,000 outdoor garden-tool-related accidents each year. Estimates from past statistics indicate that yard work accidents fatally injure more than 3,000 people. According to Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm), "Think before you cut. It hurts. Be yard safe. Be a yard safety crusader. Wear the Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man Wristbands (tm)."

Horatio Alger

Each year, the Horatio Alger Association bestows the Horatio Alger Award on truly outstanding Americans. Association Members are dedicated community leaders who demonstrate individual initiative and a commitment to excellence—as exemplified by remarkable achievements accomplished through honesty, hard work, self-reliance, and perseverance. All Members have a strong commitment to assisting those less fortunate than themselves and a loyalty and devotion to American ideals and the American free enterprise system. Each recipient becomes a lifetime Member of the Association. Again, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man did not receive a Horatio Alger Award. In the spirit of the award, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man will continue his march to overcome adversity and demonstrate the characteristics befitting of a Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans honoree.

Horatio Alger, Jr. (January 13, 1832 – July 18, 1899) was a 19th-century American author who wrote over 130 dime novels. Many of his works have been described as rags to riches stories, illustrating how down-and-out boys might be able to achieve the American dream of wealth and success through hard work, courage, determination, and concern for others. He is noted as a significant figure in the history of American cultural and social ideals. (Accessed from Wikepedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Alger)

Also, I can indentify with the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans. Founded in 1947, the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans continues to fulfill its mission of honoring the achievements of outstanding individuals in our society who have succeeded in spite of adversity and of encouraging young people to pursue their dreams through higher education.The Association brings the “Horatio Alger Heroes” of today together with those of tomorrow by bestowing the Horatio Alger Award each year and by awarding more than $8.5 million annually in college scholarships to young people. Horatio Alger Scholars have faced challenges and realize that a college education is the avenue to a better future. The Association also provides its scholarship recipients with financial aid counseling, and internship and job placement assistance. (Accessed from the Horatio Alger website http://www.horatioalger.org/)

I first became aware of the Horatio Alger Award while working at Bear Stearns, the investment bank headquartered in New York City. Mr. Alan "Ace" Greenberg was presented the Horatio Alger Award in 1997. "When Greenberg was 31, two major events happened—one would put him on top of the financial world; the other had the ability to bring it all crashing down. Greenberg was named a partner of Bear Stearns, and he was diagnosed with a cancer that had less than a 50 percent survival rate. Greenberg faced both challenges with his usual courage and confidence. He underwent surgery and began months of convalescence. For the next 12 years he had checkups at the Mayo Clinic every six months." I can relate to Mr. Alan "Ace" Greenberg, the legendary CEO and Chairman of Bear Stearns (now Chairman of the Executive Committee) who overcame much adversity in his life to become such a personal and professional success. Actually, I can relate to the adversity part of his life. Also, there are many household names who have achieved the Horatio Alger Award.

Likewise, Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man has experienced considerable adversity, including some significant setbacks associated with his severe lawn mower accident. I have been inspired by the many life stories of the Horatio Alger Heroes and Scholars. I hope to be presented the Horatio Alger Award and join a great team of man and women who overcame adversity often times for the betterment of mankind.
