Shallow Water Blackout
Learn about Shallow Water Blackout.
Shallow Water Blackout Prevention Non-Profit Organization is committed to educating about Shallow Water Blackout prevention and the dangers of breath holding.
Note & Float™
The free National Note & Float program helps prevent disability and drowning at aquatic facilities nationwide.
The program identifies swimmers and non-swimmers with a designated wristband (note) and requires non-swimmers wear lifejackets (float).
Everyone should learn swim - but before they can, float 'em.
We want to hear your Note & Float stories. If you use Note & Float, please share your photos and stories!
