This event is being held in response to what was a tragic summer in our state. In 2019, Lake Michigan and surrounding inland lake drownings were up a whopping 87%!! A very large percentage of these were adults. The CDC has shown through research that swim lessons can prevent drownings in children ages 1-4 as much as 88%! But most of use think once we have learned that skill - we can stop learning - the the same precautions don't apply to adults.
