![]() Summer in the Carolinas means sunshine, festivals, concerts, and community gatherings. While these events are a great way to enjoy the season, they also come with unique safety challenges. At Bravo1 Protection, your safety is our mission. Whether you're attending a local event in Greenville or traveling to a larger festival, here are some essential tips to help you stay safe and enjoy your summer to the fullest. 1. Stay Aware of Your Surroundings. Large crowds can be disorienting. Always:
2. Travel in Groups There’s safety in numbers. Attend events with friends or family, and establish a meeting point in case you get separated. 3. Stay Hydrated and Cool South Carolina summers can be intense. Bring water, wear light clothing, and take breaks in the shade to avoid heat exhaustion. 4. Limit What You Carry Only bring what you need—ID, phone, a small amount of cash, and any necessary medications. Use a crossbody bag or fanny pack to keep your items secure. Take pictures of your ID and text them to a friend. If you lose your wallet and phone, you'll have something. 5. Trust Your Instincts If something feels off, don’t ignore it. Report suspicious behavior to event security or law enforcement immediately. Keep an eye out for abandoned bags, people dressed in long jackets or winter clothing. Don't drink anything you didn't purchase yourself and don't leave your drinks unattended. 6. Follow Event Rules and Security Procedures Respect bag checks, metal detectors, and other safety protocols. These measures are in place to protect everyone. 7. Plan Your Transportation Know how you’re getting to and from the event. Use rideshare apps, designated drivers, or public transportation. Avoid walking alone at night. 8. Keep Your Kids Close If traveling or visiting large events with kids, pick up some brightly colored paper wristbands (like the kind you get at concerts) and write your name and phone number on it. Put it on their wrist tight enough that it can't slip off. If they get lost an adult should see it and be able to call you. Bravo1 Protection: Your Safety Partner At Bravo1 Protection, we provide professional security services for events across the Upstate. Our trained security officers and event staff are committed to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. If you're organizing an event and want peace of mind, contact us today to learn how we can help. 📍 Based in Greenville, SC 🌐 www.bravo1protection.com 📞 (864)248-6390 Concealed carry is the practice of carrying a concealed weapon on your person in public. Weapons may be carried on your body, in a holster, or in an off-body purse, backpack, or other concealment accessory. There is actually no federal law concerning the concealed carry of firearms. Some states limit concealed carry permits to handguns, while other allow electronic weapons, clubs, and knives. The concealed carry permit process varies by state, so the following information may only apply to South Carolina residents. In South Carolina, a concealable weapon means a firearm of less than 12” in length, which may be carried openly on one’s person or in a manner hidden from the public eye.
The first step in acquiring your permit is making sure you meet state-specific and federal requirements. South Carolina is a shall-issue state, which means that if you pass all the requirements, you are issued a weapon permit. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) will issue a concealed weapon permit only to South Carolina residents who are at least twenty-one years of age, and who are not prohibited by law from owning a firearm. You will also need a completed and signed application, a current full-face photograph, proof of residence, proof of actual or corrected 20/40 vision, proof of training, payment of fifty dollars, and a complete set of fingerprints (unless impossible through a verified medical condition). The next step is to complete a concealed carry course. Bravo1 Protection offers CWP training with an originally-developed curriculum that covers the permit and application process, firearm safety, use of deadly force, situational awareness, self-defense myths, and much more, all the way up to the actual firearms test. For the average individual, our training will cost $65, but there are other prices for veterans and groups. Our classes can be held in our location or yours, but all firearm portions are held at our outdoor gun range in Taylors. The classroom sessions will last for six hours, and the firearm test will last for two. After you have successfully completed your firearms test, you should complete and submit your application. It can take between seven days to six months to obtain your CWP, and until you physically have it in your possession, you may not carry a concealed weapon. In South Carolina, you must abide by private property “No Concealable Weapons Allowed” signs, which prohibit both open and concealed carry. Lastly, you will want to stay up to date on gun laws and your shooting skills. Make sure to renew your permit as required by state law, and always remember the golden rule of guns—safety first. The thought of hiring security for your wedding may not cross your mind, but it is more common–and more important–than you may think! There are enough little details to worry about on your big day without stressing about party crashers or that one cousin who had a little too much to drink. After all, your wedding day is all about you and your partner–and Bravo1 Protection can help keep it that way!
You may ask, what exactly would a security officer do at my wedding? Most commonly, you’ll find security patrolling the perimeter and interior areas of your venue. They can prevent strangers from peeking into your event, or worse, inviting themselves in! Both instances are common in venues near public areas like Downtown Greenville. The security team can also patrol parking areas to ensure that your guests’ vehicles are safe. Our security team can also assist with checking IDs to prevent underage drinking (thereby keeping your venue, bar staff, and guests out of hot water), and act as a deterrent to dangerously excessive alcohol consumption. With High Spirits Hospitality’s new location at Judson Mill, there are two different wedding venues to choose from. Whether you’ve booked the Smokestack or the Annex, Bravo1 officers will make sure that your guests are parking in the correct lot and getting to the appropriate venue. They’ll also keep the two venues nice and separate from one another in order to make your event as private and personal as possible. Some venues, like Judson Mill, require security for your wedding or event. The number of security personnel required at your event is typically based on your guest count. If you book your wedding with Judson Mill, your first security officer is included in the booking price. The Bravo1 team understands that your special day is all about you, so they make themselves scarce and unnoticeable unless they are needed. When someone is looking out for you and your guests, there is no need to worry, and you can dance the night away. |
