LIVE CW39: Water Safety

Maggie Flecknow of Houston CW39 Newsfix spent several hours at the Houston Swim Club to learn valuable water safety tips. During the live broadcast, HSC's Tammy Schoen explained many important lessons including teaching your child to swim, keeping your pool at home safe and secure, using life jackets when out in the water, and teaching children to "Throw Don't Go".

"It's very important that a child or an adult is not a strong swimmer that they don't jump in to save someone who is in trouble or struggling the water. It's actually much better for them to Throw, Don't Go."
