Summer is a great time for family reunions, going out, socializing, and traveling. It is also, unfortunately, a period of increased drowning. Please respect the water safety rules. With the shortage of lifeguards, it is imperative to be extremely vigilant with children around the water.
Continue to stay safe and enjoy your summer activities.
