TIME FOR SAFE SUMMER FUN
3 Ways to Protect Your Skin From the Sun
Always check: Did you apply (and reapply) sunscreen? Apply sunscreen, and then reapply after going in the water or a few hours later. According to the National Cancer Institute, only about 30% of women and less than 15% of men regularly apply sunscreen, which leaves them vulnerable to the sun’s harmful UV rays. The National Cancer Institute recommends using an SPF of at least 15 and reminds everyone to remember their feet if they are exposed! Seek out the shade. No matter the activity, try to limit your exposure to the sun — you’ll be cooler, too! Look for trees, pavilions, and shelters. When these options aren’t
It’s time for fun in the sun! Whether you’re heading out to the beach or lake, catching a ballgame, hosting a barbecue, or taking a boat tour, it’s important to protect your skin to avoid sun damage. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, 1 in 5 Americans develops skin cancer by the time they are 70 years old, and every hour, two people die of skin cancer nationally. The risk of skin cancer is severe — it’s not just one sunburn. Having five or more sunburns in your lifetime can double your risk of developing skin cancer.

Wear protective clothing. Whenever possible, wear long-sleeved shirts and pants. UV protective clothing is best for maximum protection. Don’t forget about your eyes — UV sunglasses are important for your eyes and the delicate skin around them. Just because sunglasses appear dark does not mean they protect against UV rays! This summer, be sure to have fun but don’t forget to protect your skin from sunburns, possible skin cancer, and early signs of aging due to damage from sun exposure! Lather up!

OUR LAW CLERK WELCOMED A BABY GIRL
This winter, Eagle & Fein estate planning coordinator Rachel Jones shared beautiful news with our team: She and her husband, Pete, were expecting a baby girl! We celebrated the growing family in mid-April. During one lunch hour, we decorated the office and invited Pete to join us for a baby shower. It was a wonderful gathering. The pair opened gifts for their little girl, and we were over the moon for them both! (If you follow us on Facebook at Facebook.com/EagleandFein , you already saw the photos of the parents- to-be from our shower.) On April 11, 2022, Rachel and Pete welcomed little Isabella Cara Jones into the world. She is by far the cutest and youngest member of the Eagle & Fein firm family, and we are thrilled to report that both Rachel and the baby are doing well. Rachel left our firm for maternity leave as our estate planning coordinator, but welcoming a baby is not the only exciting development in her life right now. In August, she will officially start attending the Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in Indianapolis! After maternity leave, she plans to continue her career at Eagle & Fein as our law clerk/summer associate preparing estate planning documents, conducting legal research, and
supervising estate plan funding for our clients.
If you speak to Rachel, please join us in congratulating her both on her new baby and this big move for her career. We wish her and Pete the best as they begin this new chapter of life together!
