Swimmers!
Since most drowning victims had no intention of being in water and since most people drown within 10-30 feet of safety, it is important that you and your family learn to swim.

Please remember:

Never rely on toys such as inner tubes and water wings to stay afloat.

  • Don't take chances, by over estimating your swimming skills.
  • Swim only in designated swimming areas.
  • Never swim alone.

 

Drowning Fatalities: Each year, approximately 6,000 people drown in the United States. Drowning is the SECOND leading cause of accidental deaths for persons 15-44 years of age.

What is really surprising is that two-thirds of the people who drown never had an intention of being in the water!
