The North Shore Aquatic Center Staff will be volunteering this Saturday at Safe Kids at the Weber County Fairgrounds. Safe Kids Day has been running for the past 18 years and North Shore has been part of it for the past six. This event was organized to help address the issue of childhood injuries and to look for ways to keep children safe. Tragically, drowning is the second leading cause of unintended injury related death of children ages 1-14. Research shows that if a child doesn't learn to swim before the third grade, they likely never will. North Shore Aquatic Center and its amazing staff attend this event each year to help teach children about water, sun safety and the importance of swimming lessons.
