Swim, Swam, Swum.

Every day, about ten people die from unintentional drowning. Of these, two are children aged 14 or younger. Drowning is the sixth leading cause of unintentional injury death for people of all ages, and the second leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 14 years.


Drowning is easy to prevent.  Learn to swim.  Learn to float.


If you don't live by the ocean, you probably visit the pool in the summer.  If you live somewhere too cold for pools, you probably vacation (or will sometime travel to a place) where there is a pool or body of water.  


Swimming is fun.  Swimming is fantastic exercise.  Swimming gives you confidence.  Swimming teaches you about setting goals, achieving them, and setting new goals.


I was SO fortunate to start swimming before I can even remember.  Nobody should have to fear the water.  It is too beautiful and too awesome to miss out on.


Prevent drowning.  Take swim lessons this summer.  Take your children to swim lessons this summer.
