Even on hot & sunny days, open water can be too cold & too fast for even the best swimmers!
Teach kids that swimming in the open water can be dangerous.
Make sure they know about uneven surfaces, cold & fast-moving water & sunken objects that are hard to see.

Heading to the lake, river, pool or ocean this weekend? Wear a life vest! Water-related accidents can happen suddenly and rapidly.
TIP: You can borrow vests from state parks or fire departments if you do not have them. 🦺

The sun is out but the water is fast and colder than normal right now!
Remember to actively supervise children in and around open bodies of water. Give them your undivided attention and DON’T ASSUME that someone is watching them.

Watch kids when they are in or around water!
It takes a village: when there are several adults in the group, choose one to be a “Water Watcher”.
Take turns being responsible for watching children when they are in or near the water.

¡En los días calurosos y soleados, las aguas abiertas pueden ser demasiado frías y demasiado rápidas incluso para los mejores nadadores!
Enseñe a los niños que nadar en aguas abiertas puede ser peligroso.
Asegúrese de que conozcan las superficies irregulares, el agua fría y rápida y los objetos hundidos que son difíciles de ver.
#ListosCalifornia
¿Vas al lago, río, piscina o al océano este fin de semana? ¡Usa un chaleco salvavidas! Los accidentes relacionados con el agua pueden ocurrir repentina y rápidamente.
CONSEJO: Puede pedir prestados chalecos en los parques estatales o en los departamentos de bomberos si no los tiene. 🦺
#ListosCalifornia
Con más sol y personas que pasan más tiempo al aire libre, los californianos pasan más tiempo cerca de aguas rápidas y frías.

Don’t do it.
Don’t head to the ocean, river, lake, or other body of water without a life vest this weekend.
Safety first, California.
#ListosCalifornia
If someone falls into the water, do not go into the water to try and save them.
Throw them something that floats that they can hold onto, and call 9-1-1 immediately.
