June is filled with moments that remind us how courage, innovation, and a little bit of daring can leave a lasting mark on history. Here are a few milestones we are reflecting on this month:

🚀 June 18, 1983 - Sally Ride became the first American woman in space, launching aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger as a mission specialist. Out of more than 8,000 applicants, she was one of only six women selected for NASA's 1978 astronaut class.

🏀 June 6, 1946 - The Basketball Association of America was founded at a meeting in New York City, setting the stage for what would eventually become the NBA and for basketball to transform from a regional gym sport into a global phenomenon.

🎥 June 20, 1975 - Stephen Spielberg’s classic “Jaws” premiered. Not only did this movie become one of the first big summer blockbusters at movie theaters, but it also gifted us with one of the most iconic movie soundtracks of all time.

These moments continue to inspire conversations about leadership, equality, creativity, and the lasting impact of a single bold step on the world.

Summer is one of the busiest travel seasons of the year. It’s also one of the most unpredictable.

Over the past year, flight cancellations and long delays have become far more common. That’s where travel insurance comes in.

Travel insurance can help protect your trip when the unexpected happens. There are a number of issues that can derail travel plans, but coverage may help by:

🔹Reimbursing non-refundable expenses if a trip is canceled.
🔹Covering costs tied to flight delays like hotel stays, meals, and transportation.
🔹Helping to offset the cost of purchasing essentials if your baggage is lost or delayed.
🔹Providing coverage for medical emergencies while traveling.
🔹Offering emergency evacuation coverage, in certain cases.

No one wants their travel plans disrupted, so having coverage in place can make those situations easier to manage if they arise. And in the meantime, the right travel insurance lets you focus on enjoying your trip rather than worrying about delays and unexpected extra costs.

Every June 14th, we celebrate the Stars and Stripes on Flag Day. While we’re all familiar with the United States’ flag, we might not know all of the history behind this symbol.

To celebrate, we wanted to share a few fun facts about the history of the flag that might surprise you:

🔹 The current 50-star design was created by a 17-year-old. Robert G. Heft of Lancaster, Ohio, submitted the design as a high school project in 1958. It was chosen by President Eisenhower out of more than 3,000 submissions in 1960.

🔹 There have been 27 official versions of the flag. Twenty-five of those changes were solely to update the number of stars every time a new state joined the Union. The star additions were admitted on July 4th, and, together, they give us a rich visual history of the country's growth over time.

🔹 The colors for the flag have taken on their own meanings over the years. Charles Thomson, secretary of the Continental Congress in 1774, suggested that red represents hardiness and valor, white symbolizes purity and innocence, and blue stands for vigilance, perseverance, and justice.

🔹 Six American flags have been planted on the moon. Neil Armstrong and Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin were the first, but five additional Apollo missions have also left a flag on the lunar surface.

🔹 The current design is the longest-running version in history. No new states have been added since Hawaii joined the union in 1959, making this the most enduring flag design the country has ever had.

Wishing you a wonderful Flag Day filled with pride and appreciation for the history behind the flag we share.

A homeowners policy should not be something you buy once and forget. Rebuilding costs, liability exposure, and property risks can all change over time, and if your policy has not kept up, a loss can reveal coverage gaps at the worst possible moment.

Since June is National Homeownership Month, our team wanted to share a few homeowners insurance mistakes that can cause problems later down the line:

🏠 Outdated dwelling coverage - Rebuilding costs have increased significantly over the years. A home insured for $300,000 a few years ago may cost far more to rebuild today, leaving a potential coverage gap.

🏠 Choosing coverage based primarily on price - Focusing only on the lowest premium can lead to higher deductibles, lower limits, or key exclusions, which can create high out-of-pocket costs in the event of an emergency.

🏠 Ignoring flood or earthquake risk - Many homeowners assume these are covered under a standard policy, but these perils typically require separate coverage. Even in moderate- or low-risk areas, events such as heavy rainfall or ground movement can still cause costly damage.

🏠 Overlooking liability coverage limits - If someone is injured on the property or there’s accidental damage to others’ property, insufficient liability limits could leave the homeowner responsible for significant out-of-pocket costs.

A quick review can provide a clearer picture of how your policy would respond in a real claim and whether any limits, exclusions, or gaps need attention. Contact our office to schedule a policy review, and we can go over your terms and make sure your coverage still fits your home today.

Life has a way of moving quickly, and certain changes, whether expected or not, can affect your health insurance coverage in ways that aren't always obvious at the moment.

Some life events trigger a Special Enrollment Period, a 60-day window before or after the event during which you can enroll in or update your coverage outside the standard Open Enrollment Period. If any of the following have happened in your household over the past year, it may be worth a conversation:

🔵Getting married, divorced, or welcoming a new child into your family
🔵Moving to a new ZIP code, county, or state
🔵Turning 26 and coming off a parent's plan, or losing job-based coverage
🔵Changes in your income or household size
🔵Turning 65 and becoming eligible for Medicare, or becoming a U.S. citizen

If anything on that list sounds familiar, we'd love to connect to see how we can help you during a Special Enrollment Period. Give our team a call, and we can get started.

You probably know that saving money for a rainy day is smart, but did you know that a life insurance policy can be a part of that strategy?

Some life insurance policies can build cash value over time, and this cash value can help protect you and your family “on a rainy day.” Additionally, some life insurance riders and your death benefit can help protect your family financially if anything were to happen to you.

If you have any questions about your life insurance policy, give us a call, and we can help ensure it is meeting your needs.

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, a reminder that we all need to do what we can to drive as safely as possible. These tips can help increase your awareness on the road and avoid accidents related to distracted driving.

đźš— Make a passenger your co-pilot. Let them handle texts, directions, or any other important task so you can keep both hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.

đźš— Avoid multitasking. Eating, putting on makeup, or digging around in a bag can pull your attention from driving. Plan a quick stop if you have a task you must complete.

đźš— Guard your attention. If your mind starts to wander as you drive, pull over and do a quick reset by taking a few deep breaths and refocus on the road.

🚗Pull over to assist children. If you’re driving alone with children and they need attention, it’s best practice to pull into a safe spot rather than turn around or take your eyes off the road.

While these tips can help improve your safety while you’re on the road, it’s impossible to avoid accidents outright. That’s where we come in. Give us a call today, and we can help you find the right auto coverage to help protect you in the event of an accident.
