Vital Water Safety Rules

Drowning can happen in seconds, and in only a few inches of water, so active supervision is #1.

Keep your family safe this season by following vital water safety rules! Drowning can happen in seconds, and in only a few inches of water, so active supervision is #1—keep infants within arm’s reach and stay off your phone. Ensure your pool is secured with a 4-foot, self-latching fence, and always use U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets instead of inflatable toys. While swim lessons are great, they don't replace a watchful eye or knowing CPR, so stay alert and never let anyone swim alone. Let’s prevent accidents and keep the water fun for everyone!
