This is a great service and a very worthy thing to know.
Knott’s Soak City Waterpark will be joining hundreds of waterparks, aquatic centers, and swim schools nationwide for the 15th annual World’s Largest Swimming Lesson. The World’s Largest Swimming Lesson is an event designed to build awareness about the vital importance of teaching kids to swim to help prevent drowning and improve their quality of life.
Internationally, the World Health Organization estimates drowning is one of the top five causes of death for people ages 1-14 in 48 of the 85 countries it monitors around the globe. Swimming is a vital life-saving skill and research shows risk of drowning can be reduced by 88% if children participate in formal swimming lessons between ages 1-4.
Knott’s Soak City is proud to help beat the single leading cause of unintended death of children ages 1-4. On Thursday June 20th at the Wave Pool in Knott’s Soak City, participants will be given a formal swimming lesson. Registration for this event opens on May 20th – those interested can sign up at knotts.com/events/worlds-largest-swim-lesson
WHEN: Thursday June 20th at 9:30 a.m. at the Wave Pool in Knott’s Soak City
