Become a Water Watchdog
Watch the water like lives are at stake (They are.)
Children can drown in seconds. Yes, even in pools where lifeguards are present. That’s why we’ve designed the Water Watchdog Program, with Water Watchdog Tags. The idea is simple. One adult wears the Watchdog Tags, and follows the rules below. When the designated Water Watchdog needs to take a break, he or she hands off the tags, and the responsibility, to another adult.
