ASSE/ACHMM Golf Tournament a Big Success!

The Wichita Chapter of the American Society for Safety Engineers (ASSE) and the Mid-Continent Chapter of the Academy of Certified Hazardous Materials Managers (ACHMM) partnered together to raise awareness and funds through a golf tournament for Youthville. The tournament took place on Monday, Sept. 8 at Willowbend Golf Course, 8001 E. Mulberry Drive, Wichita, Kan.

The golf tournament raised $17,000 for Youthville. The money raised helps Youthville carry out its mission and vision. Youthville’s vision is to provide the best sources of help to children who have been abused, abandoned, or neglected with its mission of Giving Children Back Their Childhood. Over 3,000 children are cared for annually by Youthville.

CAOHC Hearing Safety Noise Meter

Play around with the Noise Meter and hear the different sounds. The red bar below shows how long it takes before a particular sound level becomes dangerous to the human ear. For example, a chain saw has a sound level of about 110 dB. Without proper hearing protection, running a chain saw for only 2 minutes can become dangerous to your hearing!
