The suspect says they’ve received multiple reports of child abuse & need to talk to the parent involved. They threaten that if the youth doesn’t share the number, they’ll come to their house & take their family to the police. Contact #OPP @ 1-888-310-1122.^kl (2of2)

Inflatables (animals, lilo’s, cheap single skin kayaks or paddle boards) not made to be taken into the sea, construction is not up to the demands. Coastal winds, tidal flow can make steering & paddling very difficult or even impossible. For safety, keep inflatables for the pool!

Always check all your kit prior to getting on the water. You need to trust your kit and this is only possible if you look after it and check it before every session! #watersafety #drowningprevention #kitcheck @thelongpaddle @PrinceBrendon

Learning to swim has definitely changed over the years but always an essential life skill. Learning to swim, young or old, should be a priority 🤙🏊‍♀️ #swimming #learntoswim #swim #wildswim #swimteaching

Remember to check for ice/snow build-up on your vessel. A regular safety check is important, even if you’re not planning to head out on the water, because build-up can cause your boat to list and take on water or even sink.

We all wear seatbelts because we know that if there is an accident it increases our chances of survival. Let’s apply this same thinking to lifejackets! Always #wearalifejacket when out boating, rock fishing, or on a PWC. More #watersafety info: beachsafe.org.au

Our hearts are heavy this morning as we learn more about the tragic line of duty death of lifeguard Keith Pinto who was killed after being struck by lightning ⚡️ while sitting in his lifeguard stand. Our hearts go out to his family, friends & the entire lifeguard community.

The first World #DrowningPrevention Day offers an opportunity to the lifesaving community to draw attention to the importance of drowning prevention. We can all take action to end drowning. @ILSEurope and its members are on board, how about you? who.int/campaigns/world-drow…
All children should be taught to swim as young as possible. It is a life skill that could one day save them, or someone else, from drowning! 🏊 Share this post and follow us to learn how to prevent drowning. #WDPD2021 #DrowningPrevention #LifesavingSA #Watersmart #DHLLifesaving
