Summer is right around the corner and families in Paramount are getting ready for fun-filled, water activities. While enjoying the water, it’s crucial to prioritize safety, especially during National Water Safety Month, observed every May. This annual campaign aims to raise awareness and educate communities about water safety to prevent drowning and water-related injuries. Make water safety a priority with these simple tips: always supervise children around water, use flotation devices for children who aren’t strong swimmers, and be prepared for an emergency by learning CPR for both children and adults. Mark your calendars for June 7 and join the city at Paramount Park Pool for the pool kickoff! Meet the aquatics team, ask about upcoming swim programs, and even participate in swim lessons.
