While pools can be a tremendous amount of fun for the whole family, they can also be dangerous and need to be taken seriously. Water and swimming pool safety is of the utmost importance when playing or swimming in a pool. We want you to be informed and safe this summer so you can focus on the fun and relaxation.
Safety tips from safety experts

Personal health
Don’t forget drinking water and sunscreen. It’s important to stay hydrated, especially in the summer heat. Always use a broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen and re-apply after swimming, even if you have a “waterproof” type of sunscreen.
With some education, practice, and the right tools, pool safety will become second nature. No more worrying, just fun in the sun with your friends and family.
