Sign up to help with water safety

The YMCA “Splash Week” June 2 through 6 at Holding Park Pool is a free water safety program to help people of all ages who have little or no experience learn basic swimming skills and water safety practices.

More than 40 volunteers are needed each night for this five-day program which runs from 5 to 8 p.m. each night. Volunteers must be 16 or older. The Wake Forest Boys and Girls Club will provide free childcare for the children of volunteers, but all the children must be potty trained.

To volunteer and learn more, go to www.SignUpGenius.com/go/30E084CA5A72FA13-ymca.

YMCA “Splash Week” is a way for children and adults to learn water safety and swimming skills which helps them to be safe in and around the water. This builds self-confidence and self-esteem which carries over to other parts of life.

The program is free and is made possible by the Kerr Family YMCA and YMCA at The Factory with the help of the Wake Forest Boys and Girls Club and the Wake Forest Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department.
