Summer Safety, Free Swim at Aquatics Center

The community is invited to see Sierra Madre firefighters and lifeguards teach lifesaving techniques followed by free recreational swim.

The City of Sierra Madre shared the following about how to learn summer safety:

With the warm summer months upon us and kids out of school for the summer, it’s time to hit the beach and pools for some fun. Come out on Tuesday, July 31 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and Splash into Summer Safety with Waterworks Aquatics and the Sierra Madre Fire Department. This eventful day will take place at 611 E. Sierra Madre Blvd. in Sierra Madre.  See first-hand at what Sierra Madre firefighters and lifeguards do when a drowning occurs and how parents and babysitters can be prepared for a safe outing at any pool. A live demonstration of a “Mock” drowning water rescue will take place at 10am with FREE recreational swim for the community to follow.  Specialized rescue equipment as well as activities and games will provide a unique learning opportunity for children and adults.

For more information, please contact Waterworks Aquatics at 626.836.1200.
