I hope everyone is having some safe summer fun this month. Please adhere to all water safety rules when swimming or boating to avoid incidents of drowning and/or injury. As the temperatures climb, I know it’s tempting to forget about safety because the water cools us off and is fun but, just don’t be careless. Remember also that there’s safety in numbers.
