All of the Patrol Boats will "fly in formation" around the entire perimeter of Geneva Lake. Get out to the lakefront so you don't miss this awesome display!

WSP came to the aid of some people after their PWC took on some water and began sinking off the shores of Fontana over the weekend.

Patrol lifeguards pulled out two kids in separate incidents yesterday at the beach after they came close to drowning. In both cases, the kids had no parents or adult supervision at the beach. They had been dropped off (one child was 8 years old, and the other was 10). Children should never be left at the beach (or pool) without DIRECT adult supervision. Lifeguards are not babysitters, and the guards cannot be expected to be able to see every person at every second. Also, any non-swimmer children should always be within arms reach of an adult at all times while in the water. Please be safe around the water, and keep a close watch on children.

IT'S WINDY OUT THERE! If you're planning to swim from your boat, PUT A LIFE JACKET ON FIRST! Your boat will drift away much faster than you think. Hang on to a rope too! There have been too many drowning situations stemming from people not able to get back to their boats. Let's STAY SAFE ON THE LAKE FOR EVERYONE'S SAKE!
