Everyone should learn to swim!

Did you know that drowning is the leading cause of accidental death of children between ages 1-4?

Make sure every member of your family is confident and safe around the water and knows what to do in case of emergency. The Red Cross offers swim classes for people of all ages and abilities to become stronger, safer swimmers.
