If you answer no to any of these questions, then Safety Around Water is right for child.
- Can your child jump into the water and safely exit without assistance?
- Has your child ever taken a swim lesson?
SAFETY AROUND WATER:
- Every day, two children die as a result of drowning. In fact, drowning is the leading cause of death for children between the ages of 5 and 14.
- The Southeast Ventura County YMCA believes all children deserve an opportunity to learn water safety techniques.
- We are committed to making drowning prevention a priority for our community.
- Not only will we prevent these tragic events, but we will also ensure all children can safely enjoy the health and recreational benefits of swimming.
