Pool supervision saves lives! A message from our friends at the Golder Ranch Fire District The following tips will help keep you and your loved ones safe while swimming this summer. • • • •
Never swim alone. Always use the buddy system regardless of age. Stay hydrated while swimming and take frequent breaks to get out of direct sunlight. Prevent injuries by avoiding “horse play” and running around the pool area. At gatherings, designate a “Water Watcher” whose responsibility is to monitor the pool and be prepared for an emergency. The Water Watcher should be an adult who is not engaged in conversation, eating or drinking alcohol. Watchers should take turns with other adults in 20-30 minute intervals. • When it’s time to get out of the pool, ensure the pool gates are closed and secured, and check that all swimmers are accounted for and out of the pool area.
