May Is National Water Safety Month

???? May is National Water Safety Month! ????‍♂️

As the temperatures rise and we all start to enjoy more time by the water, it’s crucial to prioritize safety. Here are a few tips to keep you and your loved ones safe:
1. Learn to Swim: It’s never too late to start! And it is also never too early to start!! Most children can benefit from swimming/survival instruction as early as 4 years old!! Swimming lessons can provide essential skills and confidence to prevent child drownings.
2. Supervise Children: Always keep an eye on children when they are in or near water. Distractions can be dangerous. Appoint a designated water watcher to help eliminate water tragedies and drownings.
3. Wear Life Jackets: Make sure approved safety flotation devices are used by children and non-swimmers. Especially for weaker swimmers and children, life jackets are a must in open water.
4. Learn CPR: Knowing CPR can be the difference between life and death in emergency situations. This is great tool to have in life and especially if you are around water!
5. Respect Water Rules: Follow local guidelines and posted signs when visiting pools, beaches, and lakes. They are there to protect you and others and could save your life!
Let’s spread the word and make sure everyone enjoys a safe and fun summer around water! ????#WaterSafetyMonth #SwimSafe
