July 25th is World Drowning Prevention Day!

Lifejacket distribution & water safety outreach is an easy, fun community event. It’s all about the basics of water safety. Volunteers fit families with free safety whistles and US Coast Guard certified lifejackets from Metro, talk about water safety, and teach families how call for help using a safety whistle, assess the safety of a swimming location, employ the buddy system, and practice basic assists.
