WATERTOWN, N.Y. (WWTI) - The American Red Cross is offering tips for summer picnic goers.

According to the organization, summer is a great time to get outside for a picnic.

Here are some tips to prevent illness and keep everyone safe:

Wash your hands, utensils and workstation before preparing the food.
Separate uncooked meats, poultry, and seafood from ready-to-eat foods like salads, fruits, vegetables, cheeses, and desserts. Use separate plates and utensils to prevent cross-contamination.
Bring hand sanitizer if your picnic site doesn’t have hand-washing facilities.
If you are going to cook on the grill, bring a food thermometer to be sure grilled foods are cooked enough.

Please see AAA's grilling safety tips for more advice on how to grill comfortably during the summer cookout season.
