To a degree! The act of swimming inherently involves risk. There will be no active duty lifeguards at this event. However, there will be many eyes on the water as well as trained personnel on site. It takes a village for everyone to remain safe. Additionally, we encourage those who have any apprehension about swimming to take appropriate precaution with wearing lifejackets and/or other floation devices. Children not yet in high school are recommended to wear lifejackets unless approved by their parent or guardian.
