  • Cla Ytor Lake Festival Claytor Lake State
    In the Fall of 2014, FOCL was invited to partner with the local chapter of The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary to teach a Boater/Water Safety Class at the Hensel Eckman YMCA in Pulaski. Allison Hunter, Director of the “Y”, Sharon Eifred of the Coast Guard Auxiliary, and Cheri Strenz from FOCL, developed a plan to introduce Boater and Water Safety to young children. Volunteer instructors from FOCL included, Laura Walters, Larry Bandolin, and Cheri Strenz. For six weeks, second grade students from the elementary schools in Pulaski County attend swim classes at the “Y”. One of these sessions is to teaching what a family should know before going out on a boat for the day. This includes the equipment required for boating, general rules of navigation, and how to identify and select a Coast Guard Approved life jacket. Many of these children have made numerous trips to Claytor Lake and are aware that a life jacket should be worn. Sadly, many did not know that a life jacket is required to be worn by all children 12 and under. They also learned, by trying on various sizes, that a properly fitted Coast Guard Approved lifejacket is essential to providing the proper amount of life saving protection. This critical information about boating and being around the water is important having a fun and safe day at Claytor Lake, or any other body of water. FOCL is looking forward to continued participation in this worthwhile program. This year the Pulaski County Chamber of Commerce awarded its first Non-Profit Award for outstanding work in the community at The Draper Claytor Lake Community Programs Community Lake Claytor Mercantile.
