National Safe Boating Week is fast approaching. It kicks off on May 17th with Wear Your Life Jacket to Work Day!
Join the US Coast Guard Auxiliary, District 8 Coastal Region in promoting water safety by wearing your life jacket to work this May 17th! Let’s make a splash and raise awareness about the importance of wearing life jackets. Whether you’re working from an office, home, or out in the field, your life jacket is a statement that safety comes first!
Snap a pic in your life jacket and share it with us! Use the hashtags #LifeJacket2Work #USCGAux and let’s see your style!
Remember, a life jacket not only saves lives but shows you’re serious about safety. Let’s float the message far and wide! Check back next week for National Safe Boating Week tips.
