Last year, POOL COOL was a huge success in Rochester, MN. This sun safety education program is designed to teach children, families, and pool staff how to protect themselves from harmful sun exposure while enjoying the pool. The sun is powerful, and it's important to protect yourself! Everyone needs sun protection, regardless of skin tone.
The sun can cause burns, wrinkles, and skin damage. Stay safe with these 4 POOL COOL Rules:
- Protect your skin: Use broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.
- Cover up!: After swimming, cover your shoulders with a shirt and your legs with long shorts.
- Protect your face and eyes: When you are out in the sun, wear shades and a hat to protect your face and eyes.
- Seek shade and watch the clock: Limit your time in the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
Now, this successful program is coming to Florida! Join us in learning how to enjoy the pool while staying safe from the sun's harmful rays. Remember, the sun can cause burns, wrinkles, and skin damage. Protect yourself and stay safe!
Love it!
I would love to see a pool safety program-swimming.
