A program to bring swimming and water safety lessons to lake area children has been launched by the Lake of the Ozarks Marine Dealers Association.

LOMDA launched the program this month. In conjunction with some of the lake area swim facilities and existing programs to provide the funds to teach swimming lessons.

The funds have been made available in Versailles, Osage Beach, and Camdenton and will be available for the next three years.

Mike Kenagy, Executive Director of the Association said, “This is a great way for The Lake of the Ozarks Marine Dealers Association (LOMDA) to give back to our community and benefit the youth of the lake area”.

Kyle Kelly, board member of the Association said, “With this beautiful lake area that we call home, it’s imperative that our young people know how to swim. This really goes along with LOMDA’s ongoing efforts to increase water safety in our area, by starting with our children”.

To schedule upcoming swim lessons in Osage Beach you may contact Betsy Spica by email at ozarktadpoles@gmail.com. These lessons are held at The Regalia Hotel.

The Lake of the Ozarks Marine Dealers Association is made up of over 40 lake area marine dealers, representing all the top lines of boats, marine accessories, docks, personal watercraft and everything else to promote fun on our local waters.

LOMDA has partnered with some of the lake area swim facilities and existing programs to offer swim lessons.
