Water safety is important at every age. Whether you’re at a pool, beach, lake, or another body of water, knowing your limits and practicing safe habits can help keep you and those around you safer.

According to the CDC, 55% of U.S. adults have never taken a swimming lesson. The CDC also reports that drowning causes more than 4,000 unintentional deaths each year in the United States.

Remember to:

• Know your limits.
• Swim with a buddy.
• Check water and weather conditions.
• Wear a life jacket when needed.
• Avoid alcohol around the water.

Water safety isn’t just for children. Adults need water safety knowledge and skills too.

At Float2Fly, we believe water safety starts with awareness, education, and access.

Water safety is for everyone. Safe choices save lives.
