  • Safety Tips for the Interior Savings Across the Lake Swim
    Safety Tips for the Interior Savings Across the Lake Swim There are inherent risks associated with swimming in an open water environment. The Across The Lake Swim Society has taken the following measures to reduce these risks: 1. The swim course is an open course and boat traffic cannot be prevented from entering the course. However, the swim course will be protected on the south (bridge) side by an RCMP patrol boat and large banners erected on the bridge. A flotilla of support kayakers, canoeists, and powerboats will protect the north side. 2. Powerboats designated as rescue boats, each containing lifeguards, will flank the 2 km course. These boats will be strategically positioned throughout the course. Each boat will be in radio communication with our Safety Director, who will be at the finish line, and our Head Lifeguard, who will be on the lake. 3. The course will be clearly marked with very large brightly colored buoys at the start and the finish, with an inflatable arch at the finish line to help with sighting. 4. Support kayakers and canoeists have all been provided instructions on how to summon help from the lifeguard boats. They provide an additional set of eyes and ears for the lifeguards. 5. All swimmers are encouraged to document their medical conditions and allergies on their race registration. The Safety Director has a master list of athletes and their medical conditions that was provided at the time of registration. 6. Swimmers are provided with brightly colored caps that are numbered. If there is an emergency, the lifeguard will identify the injured athlete by his/her cap and number, and be in radio contact with on- shore medical support.

You have demonstrated how to be a true American Citizen and voice for change.
