Event Details
FIRST COAST YMCA HOSTS SPLASH BASH
Free Community Pool Event for Everyone and Free Swim Testing
WHAT: The YMCA is hosting Splash Bash, a free swim event and community open house that way everyone can learn to enjoy the water safely.
All First Coast YMCA pools will be accessible to everyone. Anyone in the community (Y-members and non-members) are welcome to enjoy the Y pools with their families and parents/guardians can access FREE swim tests for children ages 6 – 12.
WHEN: Saturday, June 8, 2019. Hours vary by location.
WHERE: Find your nearest YMCA location with a pool!
WHY: Teaching children how to be safe around water is not a luxury; it is a necessity. The YMCA’s Safety Around Water (SAW) program can help parents make sure children learn essential water safety skills. SAW is composed of eight 40-minute sessions to reduce the risk of drowning by giving children confidence in and around water.
The program is geared for unintended entries into the water and safety. The Y’s goal is that if a child falls in, they can swim, float swim, tread, and exit the water.
