As you enjoy the sunshine, BBQs, and fireworks today, don’t forget to keep water safety top of mind—especially for our littlest swimmers! 👶👧🩱

đź’§ Water Safety Tips for the 4th:

  • đź‘€ Watch kids at all times near water—drowning is fast & silent.🛟

  • ‼️ Skip the floaties—they’re not life-saving and can build false confidence.

  • đźš« Keep fireworks & sparklers away from the pool!

  • đź’Ş Encourage your child to show off their swim or float skills—they’re learning to save their lives! 🏊‍♀️🌟

Dangers of Alcohol and Lack of Supervision

  • 🍺 Alcohol can impair judgment, leading to risky behaviors around water.

  • đźš« Lack of supervision increases the risk of accidents, as children may not be monitored closely. Assign a water-watcher, whose ONLY job it is to watch kids in the pool. Rotate in 20-minute cycles to give people a brea. Better yet- hire a professional lifeguard for your party.

  • ⚠️ Alcohol consumption can lead to decreased awareness of surroundings, making it harder to respond to emergencies.

  • đź‘¶ Children may wander off or engage in unsafe play if not closely watched, especially in festive environments.

We’re so proud of our swimmers building confidence and survival skills in the water every day. Stay safe, celebrate big, and we’ll see you back at the pool soon! ❤️💙
