One way is through the YMCA’s Safety Around Wa- ter program, which teaches kids the value of being safe around water and parents the importance of water safety skills. Ac- cording to data from the USA Swimming Foundation, 70 percent of African-Amer- ican, 60 percent of Hispanic and 40 per- cent of Caucasian children cannot swim. To reduce such statistics, the Y-one of the nation’s leading nonproi ts strengthening communities through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility-will award more than 18,000 scholarships for free swim lessons to children in high-risk communities. Why h e Y h e Y was the i rst organization to in- troduce the concept of group swim lessons in 1909. Now, in thousands of pools across the country, the organization teaches more than a million children from all back- grounds invaluable water safety and swim skills. h ey learn how to reach the water’s surface if they submerge, safely reach a pool’s edge, exit any body of water and re- spond to unexpected water situations. Water Safety Suggestions If you know how to stay safe in and around water, swimming can be a lifelong source of fun and exercise. Here are six steps toward water safety: 1. Never swim alone. Swim only where there’s a lifeguard on duty. 2. Supervise children whenever they’re in water. Whether they’re in the bath or the ocean, stay within arm’s reach at all times. 3. Don’t hold your breath. Children shouldn’t hold their breath for a long time while swimming. h is can cause drowning and other severe physical side eff ects. 4. Wear a life jacket. Inexperienced or nonswimmers should wear a Coast Guard- approved life jacket. 5. Don’t jump in the water to save someone struggling in deep water. Even if you’re a great swimmer, a panicked person can overpower you and pull you underwa- ter. h e Y’s Safety Around Water program teaches the “reach, throw, don’t go” con- cept of using a long object to reach for the swimmer and pull him or her to safety. 6. Enroll in water safety lessons.

Exercise al- lows them to continue nor- mal daily activities and live their best lives throughout retirement years. And for millions of older Americans- like Ruby Dailey, Robert Groh and Willie Washing- ton-this path to improved well-being starts with Silver- Sneakers Fitness. As revealed through the program’s 2015 Annual Par- ticipation Survey, staying ac- tive is the pathway to reach- ing wellness goals, including high levels of energy and mental balance. More than 27,000 members responded, providing interesting insights into how i tness routines evolve as we age, including: • 90 percent say they have a lot of energy some to all of the time-like Ruby Dailey from Nederland, Texas. Since starting her i t- ness regimen, she has lost a total of 101 pounds and 74 inches. Dailey attends classes six days a week, takes 10,000 steps per day, and recently participated in a half mara- thon as well as a 5K race. • 84 percent of active adults do aerobic activity three or more times a week- like Robert Groh of Toledo, Ohio. Groh visits the gym an average of four times a week, and his active lifestyle helped his muscles become more l exible, decreased his back- aches and pains, and kept him at a healthy weight. Groh even competes in the Senior Olympics off ered in his area every May. • 49 percent state the desire to spend time with other SilverSneakers members motivated them to ERVICES CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK 850 ✦ VEH. & BOAT PROMO or bring in a clipping to attach to your entry into the drawing for a gift certificate. A Safety Around Water program can bridge the cultural and access gaps that may prevent some children from learning important water safety skills ticipate in formal water safety lessons gives them an important life skill. h e Y’s Safety Around Water program teaches children fundamental water safety skills and what to do if they i nd themselves in water un- expectedly. “Every year, the Y teaches more than 1 million children from all backgrounds invaluable water safety and swim skills. h is year, we’re committed to addressing the disturbing statistics around fatal youth drownings by making free swim lessons available to more than 18,000 children in underserved communities,” said Kevin Washington, President and CEO of Y- USA. “It’s our mission to help mitigate the sociocultural factors that inhibit today’s youth-especially those of color in urban communities-from receiving the poten- tially lifesaving skills to keep them safe in and around water.” One problem the program aims to solve is the number of things that inhibit African-American kids from learning how to swim and swimming recreationally or competitively. h ings that put them at high risk for drowning include: • Lack of Swimming Access-convenient facilities may be few and far between, ex- pensive and hard to get to. • Cultural Constraints-there may be a legacy of fear. • Parental Perceptions-adults who don’t swim themselves may not realize what needs to be done so their children can learn the skill.
