DROWNINGS: Water
temperatures can
remain frigid
Continued from page 8
on the Metolius Arm of Lake
Billy Chinook late Friday
afternoon, and is presumed
to have drowned. The man
reportedly struck his head on
a railing on his way into the
water and did not resurface.
The incidents highlight the
hazards that accompany water
recreation as summer gets
underway in Central Oregon.
The Sisters-Camp Sherman
Fire District notes that water
temperatures in area lakes and
rivers are still low this time
of year. Being unguarded in
the water, especially when
water temperatures are low, is
extremely dangerous.
Among preventable inju-
ries, drowning is the leading
cause of death for children one
to 4 years old. A child or weak
swimmer can drown in the
time it takes to reply to a text,
check a fishing line, or apply
sunscreen. One- to 4-year-old
children are more likely to
drown in a pool, while chil-
dren 5 and older are more
likely to drown in natural
water such as ponds, lakes, and
rivers. The risk of drowning in
open water increases with age.
Even as a strong swim-
mer, adults should know
the risks and take precau-
tions around water. The Fire
District notes that swimmers
should always swim with a
buddy; don9t use alcohol or
drugs (including some pre-
scription medications) before
or while swimming, diving,
or supervising others; and
wear a life jacket while boat-
ing or fishing, even if you
don9t intend to enter the water.
In 2013, 77 percent of
fatal boating accident vic-
tims drowned; of those who
drowned, 84 percent were
not wearing a life jacket. In
Oregon, all children 12 and
under must wear a properly
fitted U.S. Coast Guard-
approved personal floatation
device while on a boat that is
underway.
In the event of an emer-
gency, knowing CPR and
basic water-rescue skills
may help you save a life.
The Sisters-Camp Sherman
Fire District offers monthly
CPR/AED/first aid courses.
