The City of Bainbridge Island National Night Out event, scheduled for tonight at Waterfront Park, has been cancelled due to unhealthy air quality conditions. We look forward to seeing everyone next year.
The Air Quality Index (AQI) for Bainbridge Island is expected to be Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups to Unhealthy for All this afternoon into this evening.
Take steps now to protect yourself, your family, and our community.
- Stay informed and check your local air quality before spending time outdoors https://map.pscleanair.gov/
- Reduce smoke exposure by limiting strenuous outdoor activity and consider wearing a mask over your mouth and nose, like an N95 or KN95
- Stay indoors when possible and keep windows and doors cosed.
- Use an air filter with a HEPA filter, if available
- Seek medical care if you experience difficulty breathing, chest pains, severe coughing, or worsening asthma symptoms
