Houston Swim Club sat down with a group of students at their school this week to discuss the importance of water safety. Mr Joe of our Sugar Land location had an amazing opportunity to help children learn more about how to be safe in the water.
We know how important it is to spread the message. From 2005-2014, an average of over 3,500 non-boat related drownings occurred in the US every single year. One in five of those victims were children under the age of 14. The number of children who are hospitalized for drowning-related injuries is 5 times that amount. We take drowning prevention seriously!
The children at the discussion were super engaged and had plenty of great questions and comments. As most of our swim families already know, we will gladly "hop on our soapbox" any day to spread the word about this very important issue.
This is why we do what we do! #theHSCdifference
