Ahoy!
You may see and hear news about a wrongful death suit filed as a result of the tragic drowning of a five year old boy in an Omaha hotel pool two years ago.
B-T Aquatics offers an online Water Safety Education for Parents and Caregivers Course. The course is free and you can read through the material at your own pace. Visit www.btaquatics.org/water_safety_education.htm to take the course.
As discussed in the course material, the two main issues at both hotel pools and water parks are pool access and water chemistry. Layers of protection are especially important in unguarded, easily accessed hotel pools. These issues will be the focus of the lawsuit.
Please take the time to read through the course material. I have also put much of this information into a PowerPoint presentation that lasts about 18 minutes. It is available for viewing at the pool anytime we are open to the public.
Please contact me if you have any questions about water safety issues.
Keep your children safe.

We swim for good times: fast times when we compete and fun times every time we get in the pool together. You can too! Face-Up First Swimming is also the home of the popular online course, Water Safety Education for Parents and Caregivers. My name is Jeanie Neal and I developed Face-Up First swimming and put together the online course.
