South Floridians Urged to "Know the Drill"

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - June 2006

Deerfield Beach, FL --- Ocean Shutters Manufacturing, Inc., which has been protecting the homes and families of South Florida for more than a decade, has launched a website (http://www.oceanshuttersmfg.com/) dedicated to safety through education.

While many sites are created to sell a product, according to Ocean's owner Lucille A. Marino, "our philosophy has always been to educate our customers and the South Florida community at large on hurricane safety and preparation."

Marino explained that in addition to giving customers dependable products and rapid delivery, more than anything else she wants to inform South Floridians about hurricanes, the storms' potential for devastation and - mainly - what they can do to remain safe.

That's precisely why visitors to the site, which will be updated regularly, will find far more than product information. They'll find an abundance of helpful and instructive storm information. Site visitors can learn:

How to keep pets safe during a storm;

Differences in the various types of storms;

Emergency checklists - for before, during and after the storm; and

What can be done to prepare.

Site visitors also get quick and easy links to a variety of useful sites, including:

The National Hurricane Center;

The NOAA Hurricane site;

FEMA Hurricane Information, including FEMA for kids;

The American Red Cross;

Institute for Business & Home Safety;

The Florida Humane Society; and

Links to Real-time Hurricane Imagery

When clicking onto the new website, visitors will feel as if they've found a reliable partner in hurricane preparation and safety. "Check out the new site and take a tour," Marino urged. "We want to know all our South Florida neighbors are as prepared - and safe - as possible in facing the 2006 hurricane season."

About Ocean Shutters Manufacturing, Inc.: Founded in 1995, Ocean Shutters Manufacturing, Inc. is a licensed and insured company that has been providing "cutting-edge" storm shutter technology to South Floridians for more than a decade.
