Bring Your Voice to an Important Conversation

Dear Aquatics Professional,

Become one of the world’s most informed aquatics professionals. Attend an international online meeting to reach a consensus about how we as a profession are ending drowning with swimming lessons.

“Speaking as Aquatics Professionals, when is someone finished with swimming lessons?“

Date and time:

February 25, 2021 or March 4, 2021, depending on your hemisphere.

Why?

* There’s an ongoing drowning epidemic worldwide

* There will be a tsunami of interest in lessons once people can go swimming again

* The world has two definitions of “I can swim.” Some people think they can swim when they can’t!

Who?

Andie Andrews,* Aquatics Specialist in Wallingford, in the U.K, and Melon Dash,** Founder of Miracle Swimming School for Adults in Florida, USA.

And YOU!

We seek input from every voice. Be there to give it!

YOUR VOICE IS IMPORTANT!
