Rescue Rick Plans to Ride Lawn Mower Across America

Hermitage, PA (PRWEB) November 27, 2004 -- Richard Mudrinich, Rescue Rick the
Grass Cut Man™, plans to ride a lawn mower from coast-to-coast in an effort to
create awareness regarding the frequency and severity of lawn mower accidents
and to promote grass cut safety. Therefore, Rescue Rick™ wants to charter a
course and grass cut a trail through towns and alongside highways across America
from coast-to-coast during Spring 2005 with several demonstrations on the
ferocious capabilities of lawn mowers as well as presentations on lawn mower
safety to prevent lawn mower accidents. “I realize that lawn mower manufacturers
have made great strides to enhance the safe use of their various outdoor power
equipment. Nonetheless, there are still about 100,000 lawn mower accidents each
year,” exclaims Rick.
“I want to try a different approach in getting the
attention of the general public, so they will think twice before they cut the
grass. Lawn mower accidents happen in a split-second, often resulting in a
life-altering outcome that sometimes includes amputation. I learned from
first-hand experience when I amputated part of my left foot while cutting the
grass,” shares Rick. “Think before you cut. It hurts!”
Rescue Rick™ seeks
to collaborate with various organizations to educate and participate during this
grand expedition. “I want to develop some relationships with various
organizations including, government, government agencies, industry, and
non-profit organizations to literally roll across America promoting grass cut
safety. I want to showcase leading experts involved with grass cut safety,
healthcare professionals, and fellow amputees at events staged along the grass
cut trail. In addition, I welcome the opportunity to work with various
non-profit groups to help with the planning and delivery of this expeditious
journey. Furthermore, I recognize the importance to educate people of all ages.
I view schools, youth groups, civic clubs, and senior centers as a natural forum
to communicate the grass cut safety message. In particular, I recognize that
children and teenagers should learn more about grass cut safety before they come
of age to cut the grass. ”
Rescue Rick™ wants to rescue individuals from
experiencing a lawn mower accident. “I had a lawn mower that resulted in the
partial amputation of my left foot. I do not want this to happen to anybody
else. I would like to make a film documentary about this expedition to share
with the public. Therefore, I strive to promote grass cut safety.”
Rescue

severity of lawn mower accidents and to promote preventive measures to rescue
individuals from lawn mower accidents. According to Rescue Rick the Grass Cut
Man™, "Think before you cut! It hurts! I encourage you to heed lawn mower safety
precautions and promote grass cut safety!"
