Also touched upon in the interview was children’s water safety, to reduce the risk of drowning- more specifically, The Kids Alive Program. For those who aren’t familiar with Kids Alive-Do the Five this means:

1        Fence the Pool

2        Shut the Gate

3        Learn to Swim

4        Supervise

5        Learn to Resuscitate

.

The Buzz is proud to be an official sponsor of The STSA and Kids Alive. We firmly believe that by doing so we are raising water safety awareness, preventing injuries, and helping to make beaches and swimming pools a safer and more fun place for our children.  For more information or to sign up today call the STSA at (340)779-7872 or log on to www.sttswimming.org.
