A FATHERS DAY MESSAGE:

To the dads:
Thank you for being the fun, the crazy, and the balance behind so many smiles. Your encouragement, proud cheers, and presence mean so much to your children. I see every day how much they light up when you show up.

To the grandpas:
Having been blessed with special relationships with both of my own grandfathers, I’ve especially loved watching some of the most dedicated grandpas faithfully bring their little ones to daily lessons. The love, patience, and special bond you share with your grandchildren are some of my favorite pool deck moments.

Here’s to the men who show up, cheer loud, and make childhood a little more fun and a lot more safe.

Happy Father’s Day!

With appreciation,
Miss Julie

A Message From Miss Julie:

Open water is very different from a swimming pool.

Pools are controlled environments.

Open water is constantly changing.

Understanding those differences and preparing for them are key to keeping your family safe.

This is when U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets matter most, because this is exactly what they are designed for: open water.

If the water ever feels questionable, trust your instincts and skip it. Life jackets will never make unsafe water safe.

No outing, vacation, or summer tradition is worth taking unnecessary risks. Sometimes the safest decision is simply deciding not to get in the water.

There will always be another day to swim.

Beyond the Deck | The Ripple Effect

I’m honored to collaborate with Londy Johnson on The Swimpreneur Diaries to help educate, encourage, and reach more water safety instructors.

When we talk about layers of protection, I believe that what we do beyond the deck matters just as much as what we do in the water.

The conversations, education, mentorship, and sharing what we know create ripples that extend far beyond our own pools.

Please watch, listen, and share. Together, we can continue to grow the reach of water safety and strengthen the layers that help keep children safer in and around the water.

Today wraps up Miss Kam’s 4th swim season, and my momma heart is overflowing.

I love getting to teach alongside my daughter and share so many of my swim families and tiny coworkers with her. Over the years I’ve watched Kamdyn grow into such an encouraging, and talented instructor.

Her swimmers adore her, and watching each child grow in skill and confidence from lesson one to their very last day always make me so proud — of them and her.

Simply put, the pool deck is happier and brighter with Miss Kam in the water!

Thanks for bringing so much fun to every swim season!

Memorial Day Reminders | Before the Splashes 💦

Water safety isn’t a one-time talk—it’s a mindset. Every layer matters.

Your Memorial Day reminder is to do your quick check:
• Water Watcher
• Family Rule | Give a High Five 🖐️
• Skills
• BRIGHT = in SIGHT
• Barriers locked
• Life jackets fitted for Open Water
• Know your environments
• Pack your Plan B | CPR

Hope is not a plan. Layers are. Layers save lives.

Here’s to a safe, fun, memory-filled Memorial Day! 🇺🇸
