As summertime approaches and beaches, pools, and lakes become more and more popular, Float2Fly hopes to bring water safety awareness to as many Houston families as possible. One step of this process is our budding partnership with KIPP Houston: this spring, Float2Fly will give a series of water safety presentations at various KIPP campuses in the greater Houston area.

But these talks are only the first step to water safety. Float2Fly is reaching out to community pools and local swim schools to bring free water safety programming and basic swim lessons to KIPP students, bridging the gap between learned and applied knowledge. After all, it’s one thing to hear about staying calm in an emergency, but quite another to test it out!

For parents or other individuals curious about the information we share at these presentations, stay tuned for the addition of our ‘Resources’ section, which will include the Float2Fly Water Safety Presentation. Until then, you can always ask for a copy by emailing us at info@float2fly.org!
