If Sunriver Police Cpl. Elizabeth Lawrence could tell women to do just one thing to improve their safety wherever they are, it would be to have situational awareness.

That’s one thing she will be teaching at a Women’s Safety Class May 25 at Sunriver Resort.

The training focuses on situational awareness, social media risks and safety, learning about target zones and understanding Oregon law regarding personal protection devices and defense weapons. This course is presented by Sunriver Police and Fire Foundation and is generously sponsored by Sunriver Resort and First American Title. Women aged 16 and up are welcome to attend. A donation of $20 is requested. Spaces are limited and spaces can be reserved by emailing ddishaw1@earthlink.net.

This is not a “hands-on” class, so it is suitable for women of any physical condition or mobility level.
