Water safety
The Park Authority urges all of us to follow these simple rules of water safety: Always swim with a buddy in lifeguard-supervised areas; NEVER swim alone; be cool & follow the rules of the pool; Never dive in shallow water. Look before leaping; Walk, don't run around swimming areas; know how deep the water is where you will be swimming; don't swallow the pool water; take a break, use the restroom; if you need help, alert a Lifeguard; use only Coast Guard approved life jackets; not inflatables (water wings); do not push, shove, or run near the water.
Horseplay can be dangerous; Never swim around or under diving boards or slides; and When swimming outside, get out of the water if you see lightning or hear thunder.
For more information on the individual Safety Days, please call 703-792-7060 or go to our Web site at www.pwc parks.org
