Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on approving the proclamation for Williamson County Child Fatality Review Team and Williamson County EMS proclaiming April 11, 2017 as the beginning of April Pools Day in Williamson County.

The main purpose of April Pools Day is to educate the public on drowning prevention and related water safety issues.  In addition to educating the public on drowning prevention, April Pools Day promotes staying close, being alert and watching children in and around the pool.  Learning and practicing water safety skills, and having the appropriate equipment for your pool and spa.  Though awareness, our goal is to add as many proven water safety steps as possible as this is the best way to ensure a safe and fun experience.  You can never know which one might save a child’s life – until it does.
