Warm Weather and Swimming Go Hand in Hand (QUINTE WEST, ON) - Swimming is a great recreational sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. But it’s important to know how to be safe while you’re in the water. The Red Cross offers these important swimming safety tips you should be aware of before you head out to the pool or beach: • • Swim in designated areas supervised by lifeguards. • Always swim with a buddy; do not allow anyone to swim alone. • Never leave a young child unattended near water and do not trust a child’s life to another child; teach children to always ask permission to go near water. • Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear approved life jackets around water, but do not rely on life jackets alone. • Maintain constant supervision. • Make sure everyone in your family learns to swim well. Enroll in age-appropriate learn-to-swim courses. • If you have a pool, secure it with appropriate barriers. Many children who drown in home pools were out of sight for less than five minutes and in the care of one or both parents at the time. • Avoid distractions when supervising children around water. The Quinte West detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police asks all residents to stay safe around water this summer. - 30 - Contact: Cst Dave Snider Phone: 613-849-4367
