The safest place to swim is where the lifeguards are, but sometimes you want to cool down after their on-duty hours. In that case, beat the heat at your local splash pad!

32% of drowning fatalities occurred when a swimmer was swimming alone, and 29% of boating-related drownings occurred when the boater was alone. When you swim or boat with a buddy, you’re both #SaferTogether. #NDPW2025

Even strong swimmers need lifejackets or personal flotation devices (PFDs). 🌊🛟 Currents, cold water shock, hidden obstacles, and injuries can overwhelm anyone. #NDPW2025

Lifejackets are for everyone. 🦺For it to be effective, a #lifejacket must fit right and be worn properly. Be sure everyone is geared up this summer for safety. 🌞 #SaferTogether #NDPW2025

If you are not within arms' reach of children any time they are around water, you have gone too far. Stay focused and attentive, as drowning is fast, silent and preventable. #SaferTogether #NDPW2025

Backyard pools are the most common spot for drownings in kids under 5. Always assign an adult to supervise. Keep young children within arm’s reach. Use a latching gate and four-sided fence to block access. Empty or flip kiddie pools when not in use to prevent accidents. #NDPW2025

Only 1% of fatal drownings take place in lifeguard-supervised settings. This summer, be sure to only swim where the lifeguards can see you. #SaferTogether #NDPW2025

Most drowning victims can swim. But just because you're a good swimmer, doesn't mean you'll be able to take care of yourself if you get into trouble. That's why it's important to never swim or boat alone. There's safety in numbers! 🛶🦺 #SaferTogether #NDPW2025

Water safety starts at home. If you have a backyard pool, make sure it’s gated/locked and that everyone in your family knows the rules. Get more backyard safety tips and resources to stay #SaferTogether here: lifesavingsociety.com/water-safety/b… | #NDPW2025

Drowning isn’t just an Ontario problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) marks today as #WorldDrowningPreventionDay to highlight the issue worldwide. We're going blue for #WDPD and #NDPW2025. Keep an eye out across Ontario for landmarks and buildings to #GoBlue tonight too! #DrowningPrevention
