    Food for Thought as Pool Season Opens

    Memorial Day has passed and we're all starting to get into summer mode.  As we open our pools and head to the beach, here's a couple things to keep in mind:

    We also thought you should be aware of a lawsuit pending up on Wisconsin.  A woman who dove into an above ground swimming pool has filed suit against a friend and his parents for not telling her that she shouldn't dive into the pool.  She claims that her hosts were negligent by:

    • Failing to have proper lighting at night
    • Failing to have proper warnings about the pool's depth
    • Failing to provide adequate supervision
    • Allowing their son to dive into the pool and set the example for others
    • Failing to warn her not to dive into the pool

    The plaintiff is seeking $100,000.  We'll keep you posted on developments in this case.

    Finally, here are some summer water safety tips from the Red Cross.
