 If adventure leads you to the water, lead by example, and wear your life jacket!
- Even though they're required for children 10 and under, life jackets are for all ages, not just kids!
 
- Even strong swimmers should wear life jackets. If you think you'll have time to find and put one on when you need it, think again.
 
- A life jacket can only save your life if you wear it.
 
- To be effective, a life jacket must fit properly.
 
- Always check the integrity of your life jacket before use.
 
- Make sure the life jacket you get is U.S. Coast Guard-approved for the activity you'll be taking part in on the water.
