Water park officials share tips for safe swimming

POPLAR BLUFF, MO (KFVS) - Temperatures are rising and people are making their way to pools, water parks and natural bodies of water.

Officials at Hydro Adventures water park are preparing for opening day.

General Manager Barrett Byers announced the launch of the Safe Swimmer Promise in conjunction with May’s National Water Safety Month.

“Hydro Adventures encourages safe swimming practices for guests of all ages,” explains Byers. “We’ve developed a few simple rules for children to follow with the Safe Swimmers Promise, a certificate that they can sign and take home from Hydro Adventures during National Water Safety Month.”
