CastCoverz! Receives Respected Testimony
Rick Dunagan, inventor of the innovative cast management product, the CastCooler®, broke his arm recently while racing. CastCoverz! came to the rescue with a CCZ! Care Package. Rick, a car engineer by trade, always respected our products, service and marketing, and our business relationship. Disclosure: CCZ! proudly carries the CastCooler.
But Rick truly didn’t “get” the value of our branded products (covers for all things orthotic)…until now!

Rick has sent us texts, pictures, emails, and even called to tell us how much he loves his custom camo-grey CastCoverz! Handz! He is now a true fan. A few of his quotes:
* “My Armz! is saving my furniture!”
* “Everyone loves my cast cover …”
* “People come right up to me and say how cool this is!”
* “Fitz well” (we love his play on the z),
and our favorite,
* “The CastCooler works well with CCZ! covers…Perfectly paired products!”

Play it SAFE!
Did you know over 200,000 children are injured each year on playgrounds, both public and private? That’s a scary figure! Many broken bones and head injuries are suffered due to playground related incidents, falling from high equipment ranking the highest.
With nice, warm weather on the horizon, it’s important for you to know what to look for to ensure your playground is a safe haven for your children. This week is National Playground Safety Week, sponsored by the National Program for Playground Safety. Safe Kids USA has provided the following tips to help you determine whether your local playground is kid-friendly, safe, and ready for play! Of course, we would never wish a broken bone on anyone, but CastCoverz! will be here if you or a loved one are ever in need. We provide fun and functional products that comfort orthopedic patients. Now, on to those tips…
Top Playground Safety Tips:
- Look for playgrounds with shredded rubber, mulch, wood chips or sand. Grass and soil are not good surfaces.
- Playground surfacing material should be 12 inches deep and extend 6 feet in all directions around equipment.
- Make sure playground equipment is inspected frequently and kept in good repair. If it’s not, report this to your local parks and recreations office.
- Remove hood and neck drawstrings from children’s clothing and outerwear and don’t let kids wear helmets, necklaces, purses or scarves on the playground.
- Don’t allow your kids to engage in, or play near, any pushing, shoving or crowding around playground equipment.
- Keep toddlers under age 5 in a separate play area, away from equipment designed for bigger kids.
- Actively supervise kids on a playground. Just being in the same area isn’t good enough – they need your undivided attention while playing on or around the equipment.
More Big Newz from CastCoverz!
LemonAid Crutches and CrutchWear (bags and crutch pad covers), the pioneer in making mobility products fashionable and functional, recently went out of business. We wish Laurie Johnson Jackson, the founder of LAC, only the best as she embarks on the next “chapter” of her life.
As their one and only distributor, we couldn’t see Laurie’s vision perish, so we did the next best thing: CastCoverz! bought out their inventory! Over the next few weeks, we will be introducing you to the bold, vibrant crutch colors and the versatile and fashionista CrutchWear. Today’s feature: Our fabulous rainbow of crutch colors. You don’t have to deal with standard issue aluminum, anymore!
LemonAid Crutches are superior construction, made of lightweight aluminum, and powder-coated for durability and vibrancy. What’s your favorite color? Bubblegum Pink or Candy Apple Red? Maybe Midnight Black or Sunshine Yellow? See our crutch page for more eye-popping crutch colors! Tell us your favorite(s)!
