Here's one - safety on the ramp, including:

don't trip over tiedowns
how to not walk into propellors
how to not get sucked into a jet engine
walk with your head on a swivel
FOD removal / Securing your cover
Safely moving aircraft
chocking and securing aircraft
dangers of fuel leaks

Being the Air Patrol, I always think safety briefings that are related to aviation come across better.

A mix of stories and youtube footage to demostrate these items would be good.  I'd use stories if the video is too intense.

I would also throw in some health weather stuff also, hydration, heat stroke, etc.

Like stated above me, it's a good idea to mention things weather related. Heatstroke, sunburn, dehydration, etc. Another interesting topic my squadron covered a little while ago was car safety, as in what to do to make sure your car is in good condition, when to flip your tires, what to do in an accident, so on. Especially with a lot of older cadets, this can be helpful.

ORM process and flying safety are also a few ideas.

This may be a bit much but here is a link with various safety topics, outlines and presentations for Army Aviators.  You should be able to find a lot here.

I have been a safety officer for about 4 years now and I found this link and have used it on occasion for some of my briefings.  It is 12 years old but still has some good briefs that are still usable, so If you can't find something with the 50 some topics that are listed then there is a problem!  ;)
