Water Safety and Recreation Expo
IT WAS MORE THAN JUST A DAY AT THE BEACH FOR MANY UPPER MICHIGAN RESIDENTS THIS AFTERNOON…
THOSE WHO HEADED DOWN TO MCCARTY’S COVE WERE GREETED BY A BAND OF PEOPLE READY TO EDUCATE AND DEMONSTRATE ALL THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT WATER SAFETY…
IT WAS THE FIRST EVER WATER SAFETY AND RECREATION EXPO.
A JOINT EFFORT DESIGNED TO RAISE AWARENESS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY ABOUT WATER SAFETY, AND THE POWER OF THE GREAT LAKES.
THE MARQUETTE WATERFRONT SAFETY TASK FORCE WAS ON–HAND TO GIVE RESCUE DEMONSTRATIONS AND TEACH PARTICIPANTS THE SKILLS TO HELP THEMSELVES IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION.
THE Y–M–C–A AND THE MARQUETTE COAST GUARD STATION WERE ALSO AT THE EVENT.
