Summertime at the Beach jumping the waves.

Summer is approaching, the warmth of the sun and hot days draw people to water. Whether it is the pool or a beach we get excited about being in it. As refreshing and cool as the water can be, we must always remember that water can also pose a serious threat when not paying attention or following guidelines. Adults drinking and kids swimming is NOT a good combination. Someone should always take charge of keeping an eye on children. Even the ones who know how to swim. Kids play and sometimes may not realize that their actions could potentially cause another harm. It is recommended that if you have small children they should be taught how to swim and know all water safety rules, (Age appropriate) including to call for help if they see someone else in trouble. CPR classes are highly suggested. For more information on becoming CPR certified call your local:
