Charlie’s TORNADOSAFE for Students program is a unique, entertaining and information-packed live presentation in which he teaches the
best ways to survive nature’s most violent storm. Charlie's more concerned about school-aged children now that ever before due to two
frightening statistics:
1. Despite better warnings than ever before, tornado deaths are on the rise in the United Sates.
2. Surveys show more and more students - 30% of Middle School students and 66% of High School Students - are home alone after school
during the peak hours of tornado touchdowns - generally between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m.
With these two statistics in mind, it's more important than ever that students know exactly what do to when a tornado warning is
issued. Here’s just a sample of what’s covered in TORNADOSAFE for Students:
-The top five biggest made during tornado warnings
-How the first step you take during a tornado is the most important
-How most people are injured or killed in tornadoes
-How to identify the best place in your home that provides maximum safety
-How a bathtub can save your life in a tornado
-How to never miss another weather warning
Charlie uses stories from his own childhood along with amazing videos and pictures to help capture student's attention and make the
point of how serious these storms are. Charlie's convinced all students living in tornado-prone areas should know this information
because chances are increasing that they will be alone at home when the next tornado strikes.
