Be a part of the World's Largest Swim Lesson! (Registration is now full)


The nation's top water safety and training organizations are joining forces to present The World's Largest Swimming Lesson™ (WLSL), Tuesday, June 18, 2013, to build awareness about the vital importance of teaching children to swim to help prevent drowning. On June 18th, waterparks, pools and other aquatic facilities around the globe will host local WLSL lessons simultaneously at 11am ET (3pm GMT) in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record

Swimming is a life-saving skill for children and a vital tool to prevent drowning, the second leading cause of unintended, injury-related death for children ages 1-14. Research shows if a child doesn't learn to swim by the third grade, they likely never will. The World's Largest Swimming Lesson™ was created to serve as a platform to help local community aquatic facilities and the many different national, regional and state wide water safety and drowning prevention organizations work together to tell this important story on a local and national level.

If you are one of the first 60 to register (must be 5 years or older) you will receive confirmation from Deep River Waterpark and you must arrive between 9:00 AM and 9:40 AM on Tuesday June 18th (no one late can be accepted)...the lesson runs from 10:00 to 10:45 AM...after that you will be allowed to stay in the park on June 18th (no leave and return), PLUS you'll receive a ticket for another return visit in June 2013 ($22.95 value)! 
A release must be signed on arrival, parents are required for anyone under 18 years old.
