With summer fast approaching, there is no better time than now to start preparing for how to stay safe and get the most enjoyment out of swimming and water recreation season. In April, seven of our indoor pools will host April Pools Day events for families and community members. These events will include FREE public swims, water and boat safety information, and fun activities for kids.
Don’t miss this opportunity to teach your family how to enjoy summer safely. April Pools Day water safety topics will include:
- Preventing open water drowning
- Lifejacket use and promotion
- Cold water awareness
- Basic water rescue for children
Events and activities will vary by pool location. See table below for information on Seattle Parks and Recreation events or click here for information on all pool facilities participating in King County.
