Water Safety Day!

FREE COMMUNITY EVENT!

Saturday, May 22nd at the Tom A. Finch Community YMCA

The Tom A. Finch Community YMCA is partnering with Thomasville Parks and Recreation and the Thomasville Fire Department’s Swift Water Rescue Team for Water Safety Day! Learn skills that could save a life.

According to the CDC, about 5 children, ages 14 and younger, drown daily in the United States. For every child who dies from drowning, another five are rescued. Our goal as a community is to instill confidence in every child around the water so they can be safe and have fun. Bring your suit and get ready to learn basic skills for safety. Play on the splash pad after your pool time.

This event is FREE!

Available to School Age Children ages 5-12

Registration is REQUIRED! Register at the Tom A. Finch Community YMCA starting April 26, 2021.

Groups will rotate through four 15 minute stations beginning at 10:00am. Last group starts at 1:15pm. 

Concessions available on the Splash Pad!
